Ch7: Seansuree Moonsuree vs. Simphiwe Khonco RBR

Khonco edging precariously near the "needs a KO" pit's edge... and he only has 7 of those on his ledger in 25 bouts. So, not happening...not with somebody with Moonsuree's defensive skill (and experience cruising the full 12-round distance, as he now has done 8x)

I was hoping for more of a cohesive game plan from Khonco. Instead he's just fighting his usual kind of fight, not sure why he thought he was going to leave Thailand with anything other than a wide UD loss doing that.

 

Why would he do that, when he can milk being a mega-celebrity domestically for as long as he wants, given the slim contender pickings at 105?

If he comes over here, it might need to be a tough challenge for once, likely a unification with his stablemate Knockout, or the boricua wildcard Bimbito.

 

Round 6

Moonsuree is ducking the jab and rolling under the right hand, tenting the backs of both gloves overhead protectively like an umbrella, then shooting quick straight counters in combination. When he gets Khonco backing up, Moonsuree is pursuing with jabs and then sudden left hooks slapping in off the jab.

10-9 Moonsuree

59-55 Moonsuree

 

Skilled he is, for sure - just a shame he's content to babysit the green belt at home for seemingly his entire career against meager opposition.
