This is a good fight for the Japanese Middleweight title between two undefeated fighters. Takesako is 12-0-1 with 11 knockouts while Kunimoto is 4-0 with 2 knockouts. Takesako has the power advantage also has a lot of experience compared to Kunimoto who has only gone as far as six rounds. Kunimoto is decent technically but I think will struggle down the stretch against the pressure of Takesako.

I think Takesako’s experience and power should be enough to get him a stoppage win in the second half of the fight.
