Wonjongkam would not get stopped here. At his best his feet would get him out of trouble, and he was a reasonably quick and powerful southpaw who put his shots together well. Chang's feints would cause him serious hassle. Chang could well just stick to him and outwork him over 12. Who's that Mexican southpaw who gave Chang a bit of bother? Haven't seen that yet. Pongsaklek had a better chin than Zapata, but was a more straightforward target. Typically Thai, fairly tight and tidy though no Daorung in that department either. At their very best could probably go either way, though I'd pick Chang just because he's the more versatile operator. He'd likely throw Wonjongkam off and be able to outsides him at range and show all his usual tricks or use it to get in, tie the Thai up and smack him about with his free hand. This isn't awkward Naito. This is a supreme and complete fighting machine that Pong' never met before his reflexes dwindled, and that's been happening for a while so I'm not holding Sonny Boy Jaro against him either. I'm taking a prime Pong' Vs the Chang that 'beat' Zapata first time. If I was going for a sharp shooting flyweight southpaw to beat Chang it'd be Ebihara.
To be fair to both men they spent a fair bit of their careers without their legs under 'em. Two fighters who showed they could still summon enough of themselves up to compete at the highest level without the ability to get back out of range. Chang was more workmanlike and Wonjongkam looked lackadaisical at times, but they both had success despite being past their best. I mean, how ****ing long ago was the Tuncao fight?!?! And we know what Thai's are like for cutting weight, compared to Chitalada Pong's reign has been pretty spotless.
Who would come out on top if these Thai flys fought each other a couple of times each? Pongsaklek Wonjongkam Vs Sot Chitalada Pone Kingpetch Vs Muangchai Kittikasem And vice versa? Even Kittikasem might be able to absorb Pone's blows
Chitalada over Pong - Sot floats like a butterfly and... Pone over Kitty - all Pone needs is to last the distance and he'll get the decision.
