Masao Kagawa vs George Best - 1989

[@StarmersStasi]

Mr Kagawa knew he’d been in a scrap after that

[@bajuszpal172]

Mr. Kagawa was more active and and tactical. Technically, hHowever, he failed to capitalize on his higher speed, namely his leg sweeps, in stead of higher kicks, where he was often short. Mr. Best was in vain trying to be faster than his opponent, he should have learned that shorter are faster, asa a rule. But, his counter- punches in defence were his best! A Hikiwake , i.e.Draw would do more credit to both. Best regards Paul. 69

Why did the KUGB not retain this talented fighter ?

I would say Best won that but I'm no expert
