Hard hitter Takashi Uchiyama posted a third-round technical knockout victory over Oliver Flores on Thursday night, defending his WBA super featherweight title for the 11th time at Ota City General Gymnasium.
It was another no-sweat performance for Uchiyama, who won his previous bout in two rounds in May.
He took the pace from the opening round and sank his left fist into Flores's body in Round 3. The southpaw from Nicaragua wasn't able to stand back up and the bout was over.
