WBC female atomweight champ Momo Koseki (23-2-1, 9 KOs) kept her belt seventeen times to her credit when she kept her into submission at 0:36 of the fourth round on Friday in Tokyo, Japan. Koseki was too busy for the less experienced challenger, and it became a lopsided affair as the contest progressed. Now that Koseki beat up every possible challenger, her manager Masayuki Ariyoshi reportedly had a tough time looking for Momo’s opponent so that it took a year since her last defense in the previous year. Koseki says, “I may consider moving up to be matched with a more competitive rival.”
