Cristofer Rosales boasts of a professional record of thirty-seven wins and six losses. The 30-year-old boxer has a foundation in boxing and last fought on March 23, 2024. In 2019, he faced Mexican boxer Cesar J. Martinez and lost in the ninth round via technical knockout. This loss cost him the chance to win the WBC men's title belt. This was not his only loss attempt for that belt, as he had the chance in December 2018. He was in a bout against Charlie Edwards, who was a slight underdog and lost via unanimous decision. Prior to this loss, he had a matchup against Ireland's Paddy Barnes and won due to a wonderful knockout swing in the fourth round. He defended his WBC title men's belt that same night.

In 2017, he faced Andrew Selby in a flyweight division match and lost via unanimous decision.

Both fighters are on a five-bout winning streak and will be hoping to extend it. Rosales is the younger of the two with a great reach advantage. He is also more experienced, but according to the bookies, the Heavy Underdog. The safest bet in this bout is over 5.5 rounds. The method of victory in this matchup would be via technical knockout. Kenshiro Teraiji is experienced in title fights and has only lost once in such situations. It is on this note that I support him to win.
