Lovely counter cross by Takei from that southpaw stance, now an uppercut.

He still looks the slicker boxer; this fight is more about how well he can deal with the pace and pressure of Wang.

Those assets have had Takei breathing heavily more than once, but with only eight rounds scheduled – and five done – he should be okay.

After a fairly comfortable start by Takei, Wang has a really nice stint, landing all manner of shots in the corner.

Good third round for Wang.

Only eight rounds scheduled here, so not toooo long to wait til Inoue vs Nakatani, especially if there’s a stoppage.

The first round sees Wang cutting off the ring and boxing on the front foot, but Takei makes a strong finish to perhaps snatch the frame.

The main event is edging closer, though ring walks for Inoue vs Nakatani won’t be at 1pm BST after all.

1.30pm, maybe?
