    I don't think that's the kind of Thai "scene" that you follow. If you catch my drift. :lol:

    Cheers for the footage. Yeah, Thisa's not bad at all, really. Good stand up boxer who puts his punches together well, and keeps a tight guard.

    But I can't quite shake the sight of Cermeno finding a way to land eye-catching stuff in between Escandon's attacks often enough to snag a close (and in some cases, disputed) decision. Plus, Cermeno's in another stratosphere when it comes to big fight experience.

    Ugh. Cermeno's fights are such god damned mind-benders to pick.

    Keep my pick at Cermeno for now...But I could see myself changing picks in this fight...and Perez-Petrov, too.

    What the hell is wrong with you lately, you've been on the verge of pneumonia for almost a year, that's not good, pneumonia can do long term damage to people's lungs, cause scarring which can lead to COPD or lung cancer. You should do a sleep study to determine whether or not you have sleep apnea, and if you do they'll give you a CPAP machine to use at night, if you're not getting enough oxygen when you're asleep that can cause fatigue and even heart attacks or strokes, and the lower bronchioles of your lungs aren't being properly utilized therefore they atrophy and retain fluids which can lead to pneumonia, its worth looking into.:ambulance:

    I figured that Nop match would give you the best indication of his true level. And yeah tell me about it, I feel your pain, Cermeno is a huge pain in the ass, I was going back and forth on the last match and should have went with my instincts and picked over the Chinese guy, but my gut is leading me towards Thisa on this one.:BangHead:

    Switch from Cermeno SD to Thisa SD.

    Thisa does a better job of passing the eye test than Cermeno's last opponent did.

    It'll be close either way I think, but Cermeno has sometimes had difficulty with taller guys who stand off and box off the back foot and Thisa doesn't appear to do a bad job of that.

    I may regret this, but no guts no glory.

    For the record I'm 100% sticking with Thisa, like you said, he passes the eye test, and everything else you said is spot on. I had zero confidence in Qiu, but Nop I've liked for quite sometime, am I 100% confident, no, but the kid is solid and can do this, its not an insurmountable task.
