Thanks for the heads up.

Carlos is a lamb to the slaughter, but it would be funny if he won.

Just barely caught the last few minutes. 7th round KO win for Yamanka.

Looked like it was a war, will have to catch a replay somewhere.

Not sure how the rest of the fight went down but Carlson looks pretty beat up and discouraged.

Thank you!

Despite all the knockdowns (& there were a fair few!), a couple of times in the fifth & sixth Yamanaka was clearly wobbled from shots, IMO. Combined with his reckless insistence on fighting bolt-upright (the better to load everything up on that left cross), I wonder how long he's got left.

Thanks. And this guy has the live in-house view for most of the big Japanese fights
