Kyosuke Takami

Kyosuke Takami is ranked #4 at light flyweight — close enough to smell the title, dangerous enough that champions don't say his name too loudly.

Judges are mostly decorative at his fights. 8 of 10 wins have come inside the distance, a 80% KO rate that shapes how every opponent trains for him.

The last fight went to René Santiago (Decision (Split)) — a setback, and the interesting question is always what a fighter does with one.

At 24 years old with 11 fights of experience already banked, the trajectory matters more than the current ranking.
