Kyotaro Fujimoto vs. Solomon Haumono

[convict]

haumono might be able to make some good coin there if he has a couple more fights.

he would stand out amongst the crowd there.

I agree, I wish him all the best and this just may be a positive step forward for a fighter that has gone nowhere near to where i think he should be at.

i know he was off for over 2 years, but had a badly broken arm that he kept re-injuring from what i was told.

On the realistic side of things he (Haumono) only beat up a retired K1 fighter who in 6 fight's had a lucky home decision Vs Welliver. All honestly the jap was a "tomato can" waiting to be squished. Im glade Sol did it and did it the right way buy totally destroying him .

Where did you get the impression the jap's win over Welliver was a home town decision? I'd suggest you watch the fight.

Hopefully Solo can now push on now that he has some momentum behind him. The OPBF title should push him up the WBC rankings and no doubt attract bigger and better fights for him! Be a shame to see him slip back into inactivity now

Hey Guys, I was at Ringside, and saw Kyotaro signal to his corner, he didn't want to continue, he really didn't know where he was for a few seconds and was hurt, but he appeared ok when the count finished and the fight resumed, only to be smashed by that massive right hand.

He looked like he didn't want to be there after the first round when he felt Sol's power, he just would not engage and ran all night, two of the Judges scored first round 10-10, mainly due to there were just one or two scoring blows, the second was not much better.

Having said that, Haumono was really purposeful and went hard at Kyotaro, he took his time, and it almost looked as though, he knew what was gonna happen, Haumono was very well received at both the weigh-in and fight, he was very popular and both he and his team, presented themselves well.

Watching that youtube clip, after the first knockdown Kyotara first looked at his corner and clearly indicated that he wanted no more, and then indicated to the ref that he wanted no more, and even turned his back to the ref aswell. FFS, where was the towel from his corner. If a fighter says he cant go on anymore, he really means that he wants out. Then the hands went down and he backed up to the ropes, that could have been fatal as solo wound up the right and pretty much had a free shot.

Cornerman and referee should have a big word with themselves there.

'til death do us part is the name of the game in Japan ;;-)

Japan does better in lighter weight divisions. In their current P4P list the biggest man in the top 10 is a lightweight, most of the list are bantamweight or lower.

haumono should dare this dude for a rematch.

would be a good fight.

Haumono was actually a sparring partner for Fujimoto ahead of his bout with Nasio.
