Philippine super flyweight champion Jonas ?Zorro? Sultan has scored an impressive 2nd round TKO Victory over Japan?s Tatsuya Ikimizu at the Towa Pharmaceutical Ractab Dome in Osaka on Easter
Sunday.

Sultan who fights out of the famed ALA Gym in Cebu nailed the 33 year old Ikimizu with a clinical overhand right that preceded the stoppage at 2:37 of the 2nd round of a scheduled eight round bout.

With the win the 24 year old Sultan improved to 10-3 with 6 knockouts while bantamweight Ikemizu dropped to 13-2 with 6 knockouts.

Ikemizu had earlier lost a unanimous eight round decision to former ALA boxer Mark John Yap who fights out of Japan on April 16, 2015 and a ten round unanimous decision to Go Onaga in
Okinawa on November 15 last year.

Sultan won the Philippine super flyweight title with a unanimous twelve round decision over fancied Rene Dacquel on July 11 last year.
