I'd probably take Kingpetch. Unless Park stops him early (slight chance) I think he will end up working his way into the fight and ultimately make Park implode in the last third of the fight. Park-like talent should never lose to Kingpetch like talent though....
Both erratic performers. Park moreso. Don't rate Park's power all that much myself. Kingpetch comes through some tricky moments, get inside and uses his sneaky right uppercut, and takes Park out of his game, and then establishes his own jab winning on points. Really though, Park should completely baffle Kingpetch, who got through on sheer drive most of the time. Picking them on their absolute best day (Kingpetch-Noguchi or Harada II; Park-Canto) then I'll take the Korean on points, though Pone would be tricky. He was a big fly and could fight at range or the inside. In comparison, I'd pick Harada and Ebihara to beat the **** out of Park just as they did in their first encounters with the Thai. Just as I'd feel very comfortable pickign Oguma to beat Kingpetch handily.
I like this:deal......and that is a thing Canto didn´t....a good uppercut would make Park´s head movements (very important to his game) less effective.....on the other hand perhaps that right uppercut would make Kingpech more open to Park´s left hook, a good left hook !
Park is so much more diverse offensively. There's no doubt an on-song Park could really hurt Pone. But the dimensions are different here, while not particularly great at it, Pone has the range whereas Canto didn't. If Park tries to bait counters and unleash his accurate shots then he might just find his head movement all based on not getting hit by the jab. Kingpetch could stifle him. But then the Thai could fall in, could be hit (especially with the right hand) and could be forced out of a fight. You'd wantthe resilient Pone of Harada II IMO, to lay it on Park between 10-15. Then we'd see if he'd wilt when he was fully focused as well. Then again, Kingpetch couldn't hit for **** Slashing, damage inducing shots but no power. Hence why his right uppercut was incorporated so well I guess, he maximise what he had. I'm read conflicting reports on his schooling, but I'm pretty sure he wasn't a convert (same as Chionoi)
This a fantasy fight where the extreme talent should win stylewise, but I think gets out hearted by the skilled and gutsy veteran Thai. In theory, I could see park using his beautifully awkward style to trouble Kingpetch immensely. However, Kingpetch would whether through, and start to consistently land right hands and uppercuts at the later stage. Both were inconsistent, but Pone was a warrior who'd take his licks. Can't say the same for Park.
