Gennadiy Golovkin vs. Ryota Murata | DAZN - 9 April 2022

[handsofstone]

Card on now, Ito first up

[NoScoutingReports]

Some great action here early!

[NoScoutingReports]

2 fcuking warriors. Ito's nose is smashed to bits but he's still fighting hard and landing some big counters through the middle.

[handsofstone]

Corey Erdman and Algieri a lot better than US DAZN

I agree, quite like Algieri on co-comms.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Brutal fight stopped in round 11 after a clash of heads left Masayuki Ito unable to continue, Shuichiro Yoshino wins a technical decision (106-103, 107-102, 107-102). Great opener.

Eff it, I’ve just signed back up to DAZN for at least this month, loads of content coming up.

Undercard Results

• Kazuki Anaguchi def. Ryuji Yamamoto by TKO (R3)
• Taiga Kato def. Hiroka Amaki by unanimous decision (39-36, 39-36, 39-36)
• Yuki Kajitani vs. Yuki Sato, 4 rounds, super flyweight (TBD)

[NoScoutingReports]

Nakatani is a problem.

[JxhDel.]

Ito/Yoshino a phone-booth scrap, the former got tired by the latter relentless toe-to-toe assault and nicked the decision by one point, for me.

[JxhDel.]

Junto is so good, powerful and precise.

[Ruthless-RKO]

mis-match!!

[handsofstone]

Nakatani is pure sex

[Boxerbeetle]

Good stoppage.

[JxhDel.]

Poor Yamauchi looking like a Lego Bionicle...

[handsofstone]

Pretty much punch perfect from Nakatani, surprised to see Yamauchi last 8 rounds especially after getting rocked in the first 2 rounds, Nakatani uses that spearing right jab and straight left so well, busted Yamauchi up with it and broke his nose by the 3rd, after that Nakatani just took him apart, kept landing the big left cross but started targeting the body and brought the hooks and uppercuts into play, torrid night for Yamauchi but he deserves massive props he warmed into the punches, kept coming forward and landed a few hard looking lefts to the body, Nakatani a level above and once he hurt Yamauchi in the 8th he showed great variety an accuracy to force the ref in, great stoppage

A unification with Martinez or Edwards would be epic

[Ruthless-RKO]

A packed arena

[Ruthless-RKO]

Main event now.

[maverick23]

I’m buzzing for this - I’ve missed seeing GGG in a meaningful fight.

Seems to be rammed in there - I wonder how many they’ve got.

Over 20k. That arena is huge.

[Boxerbeetle]

Come on GGG Bit nervous considering his age, must be honest.

[Ruthless-RKO]

I had lunch 12-1pm.

I would have changed it to 1-2pm had I known it would start now.

[Boxerbeetle]

Interesting opener.

[maverick23]

Interesting opener.

Yeah - nice work with the jab for GGG but Murata landing plenty too.

[Ruthless-RKO]

GGG 10-9
