Manel Kape Stops Kyoji Horiguchi in Round Three for Fourth Straight KO

Manel Kape knocked out Kyoji Horiguchi in the third round, recording his fourth consecutive knockout and setting a flyweight divisional record with five KO victories. Horiguchi controlled the first two rounds with his speed and movement, but was caught and finished when he lingered inside after a combination rather than breaking distance. The loss was costly for Horiguchi, who appeared on course for a potential title shot before the stoppage.
