    @ Flyweight. Who would you favor in this interesting match up? I think this would have been pretty exciting.

    Close, but I'd pick Ohba.

    Chitalada had more talent. Ohba had more substance, along with very good skills.

    I'd take substance and skill over the talent.

    Break it down because this just reads like you’re using buzzwords. Why did Ohba have more substance? What part of Ohba having good skills and ‘more substance’ still make him less talented than Chitalada?

    I mean what I said, that Sot was more naturally talented, in terms of quickness, fluidity, and reflexes.

    But that Ohba appeared to a more steady, and substantive operator.

    Both had terrific jabs. The only jab I've seen at flyweight that was probably better was Pone Kingpetch.

    Ohba looked like the straighter puncher to me, and he was rangier, I think that would give Sot tremendous trouble.
