Hey Yaca take it easy mate. :thumbsup Both Pira and I are talking in an MT context. I agree under K1 kickboxing Petro would probabaly have taken it, but nder FMT JWP takes it. You know me I'm not a huge Petro fan but admit in the Kickboxing world he's the man to beat and a great fighter to watch. I just like stirring a little when it comes to Petro cos of the Buakaw robbery, I'll never forgive that! Rememberunder MT rules Petro lost pretty convincingly to Buakaw (robbery) and the thing with Buakaw as you know well Yaca is he isn't nd never has been the best Thai at his weight. Ebven though I'm a massive Buakaw fan and I rate him as an ATG he never won either a Raja or Lumpinee stadium title.

I would love to know how Petrosyan lost his fight against Buakaws former gym mate Nonthanan Por. Pramuk. I imagine it was in the clinch or was beaten in kicking exchanges. Or both. their is a posibility that it was a bad decision. but for me I think Petro is just not as suited for the thai stadiums as he is for the japanesee and european kickboxing circuit. Relized that and made the switch. I guess I feel like Petro doesnt get appreciated like he used to on this forum. So I thought I should come to his defence a little bit. I also think Buakaw should have won against petrosyan when the two faced eachother in 2007 it was close but clear. In thailand it would have been even more clear, but even under kickboxing rules Buakaw should have won it. Besides that fight though Petro has been untouchable maybe people want to see him tested again... Congratulations on the baby Boran, and welcome back!
Thanks for the congrats Yaca. :good I'm not too surprised about Petro's loss against a quality Thai in Lumpini especially as this was the first time he fought a higher class Thai in Thailand. His previous win in Samui against a Thai who was cannon fodder really, not a quality opponet. Fighting farang MT guys and Thais is different, it takes time to get used to it. I know he'd fought Thais before in Europe but that's a different ball game with out all the Thai variables I mentioned above and where were those guys in thier careers if they were in Europe in the early 2000s. I've still never seen that fight, I must be able to find it somewhere on the net. :think Petro gets alot of deserved respect on here still especialy from the casuals, it's just us jungly MT diehards that are blasphemous!
Nope, had the baby last week so tied down here until probably the end of the year, unless I have to do a quick trip back for a business. Why, what's up?
Does anyone know what happened with The Contender Muay Thai Season 2? Was it ever filmed? The first season was great, much better than the boxing version.
The whole 2nd season fell apart and was never filmed. I was waiting for it to start but then it never did...:huh
Let me know when your going, it'd be good to meet up. By the way trying to PM you......maybe you should check the fight sport asia site today some time b4 5.30 pm, remember what's happening in Manchester today!
