    Kompayak Porpramook v Koki Eto and Paulus Ambunda v Tomoki Kameda

    What we know-
    Porpramook is a fun to watch warrior who comes to have a fight
    Eto is a limited fighter with a big punch
    Porpramook v Eto should be GREAT fun as long as it lasts!

    Ambunda is a short, tough, hard worker
    Tomoki is arguably the most skilled of the Kameda brothers and can box or brawl
    This could be a very fun contest if Tomoki can be dragged in to a war

    Anyone excited about either of these bouts?

    Interest that Tomoki could become the first ever Japanese fighter to win a WBO world title, and become the third Kameda to hold a world title, not many families can boast 3 world champions.

    The Kameda fight really interests me, I can't catch it though, got college **** to do, might just follow it on twitter or a RBR.

    This thread might as well be an RBR from now on

    NOTE THERE WILL BE SPOILERS BELOW THIS POINT






    The Thai show's opening round saw Knockout CP Freshmart retain his WBC youth strap stopping Sammy Hagler.

    The Thai's always love to do these long introductions in world title fights, always seems to suit the Thai for some reason.

    Japanese fighters have an AWFUL record in world title fights in Thailand

    Yeah, it's strange none of them are shadow boxing or something to keep a sweat on... I know it's hot as hell there, but still... OK, now they are... but only sporadically.
    Here go the anthems.

    I think Sato did do some shadow boxing ahead of his bout with Srisaket, that did him no favours as Srisaket just steam rolled him....God that was painful to watch

    What an opening round. Good straight right hands from Kompayak. Eto lands some good right uppercuts. Appears to drop Kompayak. The ref rules it a slip!?
    10-9 Eto

    Eto boxed well behind his jab for 80% of the round, then exploded late rocking Porpramook with a straight-uppercut combo. He went on a big assault and seemed to score a knockdown that the referee ruled a slip...then slipped himself. Good opening round for the challenger! 10-9 Eto
