John Riel Casimero’s win streak of nine fights ended on Thursday, Oct. 12 after settling for a fourth round technical draw against Japanese fighter Yukinori Oguni in their junior featherweight bout at the Ariake Arena in Koto-ku, Japan.
Casimero was ahead in two judges’ scorecards, 29-28, while the other had Oguni leading by the same score when the fight was halted. The match, however, didn’t refer to the scorecards when it was stopped as it failed to get past the halfway mark of the scheduled 10-round bout resulting in the technical draw decision.33-4-1, with 22 knockouts but the result also wasted his chance to strut
Casimero actually made a good account of himself in the opening rounds, catching the Oguni with staggering overhand rights to set up the pace.
