Tsutsumi Stops Rojas Garcia in Round Two on Canelo Undercard

Reito Tsutsumi made a statement on the biggest stage of his young career, stopping Raymundo Rojas Garcia by technical knockout in the second round on the Canelo Alvarez vs Christian Mbilli undercard in Riyadh on Saturday. The Japanese super featherweight, unbeaten in five professional fights, opened the pay-per-view portion of the 'Mexico vs. The World' card in style. Tsutsumi had been tipped by many observers to have too much skill for Rojas Garcia, and the fight followed that script. The 10-round bout never reached the middle stages as Tsutsumi's speed and accuracy overwhelmed the Mexican, forcing the stoppage early. Rafael Espinoza had earlier stopped Ricardo Blandon in three rounds on the same card.
