The Flyweight division has been one of the best to follow over the last few years. It's not only given us high profile dream fights, such as the recent bout between Akira Yaegashi and Roman Gonzalez but it's also given us some unexpectedly great bouts such as the bout between the then Japanese champion Takuya Kogawa and Suguru Muranaka. Another of the unexpectedly good fights saw Sonny Boy Jaro, the then defending WBC Flyweight champion, travel to Japan to fight against Toshiyuki Igarashi. The bout came just 4 months after Jaro's huge upset win over Pongsaklek Wonjongkam and it was clear that Jaro hadn't gone to Japan to just hand his belt over to the touted Igarashi. Whilst we won't ruin the fight we will say it was extremely enjoyable with the styles gelling well at times with Igarashi being the fast man and the better pure boxer whilst Jaro was tough, game through out and throw punches to try and behead Igarashi making things very interesting throughout. (For those wanting to skip the build up the fight starts around the 10:00 mark)
