Reito Tsutsumi kept his dream of a world title inside ten professional fights on track as he stopped Leobardo Quintana inside four rounds at The Ring V: Night of the Samurai.
The Japanese talent, a world medalist at youth level, made good on his talent and promise as he secured his third straight stoppage against the Mexican in Riyadh.
Tsutsumi, whose brother Hayato is also a highly tipped operator, has been bold in his ambitions to conquer the world, fighting on a succession of major fight cards.
Now, with his Middle East debut under his belt, the star will surely look forward to a homecoming in the Far East next year as he pushes on for further glories too.
