A trip to Tokyo, Japan, to start our Saturday is just what we needed, and it is right what we are getting as we go to the Kokugikan to take a seat at the Santiago vs. Nakatani event, where we are taking a deep look, not at the main event, but the middle point bout in this five fights event.

This duel is also the first of 3 title bouts in it, as the vacant WBO World Super Flyweight Title is on the line, and the local Kosei Tanaka is going to go to war against the Mexican Christian Bacasegua for it.\u00a0

These two exciting fighters have a combined record of 48 fights, so we expect the technique and experience to be showcased from both sides as they entertain us and the local audience while going through these 12 rounds.

With everything on the line, we are more than excited to dive into the details of what this fight brings our way, so let’s get comfortable and start going into this breakdown!

Why Bet on Kosei Tanaka?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Japanese representative is a unique boxer, and some consider him a special athlete. This last is due to him being a WBO title holder <\/a>in multiple weight classes.

Tanaka became the WBO’s minimumweight champion in May 2015, light flyweight champion in December 2016, and flyweight champion in September 2018, and he was able to conquer them back to back until he suffered a crushing defeat against Kazuto Ioka by knockout.<\/strong>

However, he came back with extra motivation, and now he is looking at the chance of achieving a title in the fourth category.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on Christian Bacasegua Rangel?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Christian Bacasegua is an imposing fighter, but his record does not demonstrate the shine and adversity of his current opponent.\u00a0By the age of 26, the Mexican fighter had suffered four crushing defeats in his career. However, we have to note that he hasn’t lost a single round during the last three years.\u00a0<\/strong>

He may not have had quite a serious opponent in his career so far, so this clash is a big step up.\u00a0From his previous fights in the last three years, he only managed to get the secondary WBO Latino title.<\/strong>

\u00a0A lot of time has passed since these matches, and now Bacasegua boasts fresher energy in the ring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final Betting Analysis –\u00a0<\/strong>Kosei Tanaka vs. Christian Bacasegua Rangel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Except for one crushing KO defeat at the hands of Kazuto Ioka, Tanaka has been relentless in the ring, proving how intimidating and skilled he can be whenever he fights. Even though he does not have the most impressive build, nobody can debate that his skills are excellent.

Bacasegua may have the upper hand if we talk about physicality, as his stature and durability seem to be the better of the two. However, the Mexican fighter does not have the world-level experience that the Japanese, three-division champion and hero of the audience, has.

We expect an exciting bout, but we can see the Japanese fighter taking the belt in front of his home crowd during this Saturday’s event with a KO in the 8th round.<\/strong>

Go for a victory for the local fighter at 1.124. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $12.4 for a total payout of $112.4.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
