Abema TV: Kazuto Ioka vs. Josber Alexander Pérez & Daigo Higa vs. Navapon Khaikanha RBR

Not a coincidence, I'm sure.

 

Ah ****.

 

Higa walking into the ring right now, can't wait for this one!

 

Higa looks miniscule out there compared to Khaikanha, it's almost comical to see the size difference. He's buzzing around throwing and landing good shots but the bigger man has evidently more meat on his punches. Higa's better volume wins him the first.
Higa 10-9.

 

Khaikanha isn't only taller than Higa but thicker too, he's walking Higa down with little fear. Once it reaches the ropes Higa takes numerous punches. A pattern of Higa circling off, landing decent potshots and Khaikanha progressively pushing him back to the ropes is established. Higa and Khaikanha end the round trading on relatively even terms in the centre ring. I'd edge this round to Khaikanha as his volume increased significantly.
Khaikanha 10-9.
19-19 overall.

 

Some savage trading on the inside to start the third with Higa getting the better of it. Khaikanha's tactics of pressing Higa to the ropes and unloading a vicious body assault is working its magic. Uppercuts aplenty start following and he hurts Higa! Higa recovers pretty well but this body attack has already taken a bit of zip out of his own attack. A strong round for the Thai.
Khaikanha 10-9.
29-28 Khaikanha overall.

 

I hate that I can't watch this.

 

Higa opens the round to a blinder, hurting his foe badly but the Thai comes through it. Khaikanha returns to his savage body assault, you just know Higa is pissing blood tomorrow. He unloads some solid shots on the Thai's chin but they aren't doing much considering they're the Mexicans of Asia. Higa then unloads a vicious return body assault which puts the Thai down for the count! KO4 Higa!!!
What a fight while it lasted.
