The Wba super-Fw champion Jezreel Corrales entered this fight with a professional record of 20-1-0 (8 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.3 super featherweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Vasyl Lomachenko).

His opponent, the former world champion in two different weight classes Takashi Uchiyama, has a boxing record of 24-1-1 (20 KOs=83%) and he entered as the No.8 in the same weight class but he comes off the loss against Jezreel Corrales in their first bout (=Uchiyama vs Corrales I). ‘El Invisible’ Corrales vs Uchiyama 2 is valid for the WBA Super World super featherweight title (Corrales’ first defense).

Amazing ref never deducted any points off Jezreel then it could’ve been a totally different fight.. But have to admit Jezreel is the superiour fighter, Uchiyamas just to old now 36, the footwork and reflexes are gone…
