Two Filipino boxers, Jimmy Borbon and Joel Taduran have been beaten easily in two mismatches in Tokyo.
Hall of Fame journalist Joe Koizumi reported that former WBC super-feather champ and Japanese No. 1 southpaw Takashi Miura (30-3-2, 23 KOs), needed just 161 seconds into the initial round to dispatch Filipino Jimmy Borbon (5-2-2, 3 KOs), with a single left leather on Saturday in Tokyo, Japan.
Having been dethroned by Francisco Vargas in a grueling battle in Las Vegas last November, Miura participated in his first bout since then and made short work of the overmatched Filipino opponent by displaying his awesome power with which he had badly decked Vargas midway in his previous bout. His rematch with Vargas is highly anticipated by Japanese fight fans."
In another bout former WBC flyweight champ, lefty ex-Olympian Toshiyuki Igarashi (22-2-2, 11 KOs), swept almost all rounds, winning a lopsided verdict (100-90, 99-91, 99-92) over Filipino Joel Taduran (7-2-1, 1 KO),over ten rounds.
Taduran had won by a 3rd round TKO over Michael Borja last April 2 and before then was forced into a no decision when he suffered a huge cut over his lefT eyelid due to an accidental head-butt in a clash with Jerome Clavite last February 6.
