Segawa was ranked as a top ten pound for pound kickboxer by Combat Press from June 2015 until October 2022, when he took an extended break to heal a number of injuries, and was ranked as the best pound for pound kickboxer from June 2019 until July 2022. Combat Press ranked him as the best flyweight and later the best bantamweight in their divisional rankings as well. Segawa most recently competed in ONE Championship, and is one of only two men to have knocked out Rodtang Jitmuangnon.
