    I saw this bout, by chance, being described as 'The Fight of the Decade'. Knowing the reputation of the fierce, prideful warrior Yaegashi, and the insane description, I knew I had to check it out.

    It did not dissapoint.

    There was some absolutely ****ing INSANE action here.

    The speed, the heart, the constant activity and exchanging. Amazingly fast and brutal. Yaegashi was incredibly fast and Porpramook was insanely tough.

    Round 7,8 and 10 are easily rounds of the decade.

    Round 7 they actually fought for the whole 3 minutes exchanging, not exaggerating.

    Do yourself a favour and watch this. Right now!

    :D

    I was actually surprised how well they kept their punching technique whilst exchanging though.

    Obviously you already told me, so I feel it necessary to tell you that Check isn't spelt with an A
    ;)

    I remember the minor fuss at the time but it took absolutely ages for it to appear anywhere from what i remember. Probably due a re-watch right enough.

    Oh how times have changed, if a fight is on Japanese TV it's online the same day now (often within hours), but back in the old days you'd have to watch live on Keyhole or cross your fingers mega tightly and be patient
