    Both undefeated. Dat's arguably "The greatest professional boxer that Vietnam has ever produced." Should make for a war.

    You guys catching this fight?

    It sucks that his career has stalled after beating Miguel Flores. He's too high risk for the prospects and too low reward for the champions.

    Now he must degrade himself to fighting BK. I wish he could go into MMA and get a better paycheck at least.

    Just shows you the shady politics of boxing. You beat a young 22-0 prospect. A fight you weren't supposed to win. Then you get shut out of the sport and haven't been able to get a fight since. It's a shame.

    I wouldn't say BKFC is degrading, it's actually the fastest growing sport in the world. People were saying the same thing about UFC in the 90's. Look at where they're at now.

    I remember how big of an upset that was. It was a great story but it never had another chapter. Which is a major shame.

    Yeah, I do respect all those mental *******s in BKFC. I just can't see it being as respectable as boxing, and even MMA. I just hope they get paid good.
