The revelations of this boxing exhibition ended up a way not many could have predicted...
Although there was a massive experience gap between Tenshin and 'TBE', we have seen Nasukawa show himself as durable through kickboxing wars.
It was really the size difference and power differential that helped Floyd finish the fight when he did.
Tenshin was a clean 5"4 who fights at 125 pounds regularly, and Floyd is a natural 140 who has shown to be highly slick and still just as fast at 147 pounds.
The dynamic punching and ring generalship conquered the Japanese mixed martial artist. Floyd's confidence, pressure, and all around brilliance forced his hand early. Tenshin was dropped to the canvas three times and eventually finished with the lightning left of this all time great.
Floyd got the job done.. and he's still big in Japan! The New Year was also brought in by a wonderful matchup between striking phenomenon Kyoji Horiguchi and slick Bellator wrestler (and champion) Darion Caldwell.
I won't reveal the result of that fight but it does end in a finish.. and a surprising one at that.
Let us look forward to new, amazing fights and maybe a merging of champions that ONE and Rizin are trying to complete. I do wish for a better start to the year for both mixed martial arts and boxing.
I'd also like to believe we will see a jump in crypto quite soon... we are in essence a bubble waiting to burst! #ToTheMoon
