Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2019-05-25, too much holding and too many interruptions between Masayuki Ito and Jamel Herring: it gets two stars.The Wbo super-Fw champion Masayuki Ito entered this fight with a record of 25-1-1 (13 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.8 super featherweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Miguel Berchelt). He suffered his only loss when he faced Rikki Naito in 2015, since then he has won nine consecutive bouts beating Vergil Puton, Christopher Diaz (Masayuki Ito vs Christopher Diaz) and Evgeny Chuprakov in 2018 (Masayuki Ito vs Evgeny Chuprakov).
His opponent, the former Olympian Jamel Herring, has a boxing record of 19-2-0 (10 knockouts) and he entered as the No.58 in the same weight class. He was defeated by Ladarius Miller in 2017, but then he has won over Juan Pablo Sanchez, John Vincent Moralde and Adeilson Dos Santos. Ito vs Herring is valid for the WBO World super featherweight title (Ito’s second defense). Watch the video and rate this fight!
