Kem Sitsongpeenong Vs Nopparat

This fight took place on the 25th of December 2010. It was held in the latest Isuzu Tournament. The winner of the whole tounament wil represent Thailand in the next Thaifight tournament. So it’s pretty much a tournament, to get into another tournament. If you haven’t heard, this fight was suppose to have been fought earlier in December but unfortunately Nopparat fell ill while having his hands wrapped and had to go to the hospital. Here’s what Rob Cox had to say about the incident.

It is a real problem nowadays especially with the T.V fights where there is a lot of betting countrywide, there are gangs looking to try and slip something into the boxers water or food before hand to make them weaker so they can bet big on the opponents, have to watch the boxers all the time to try and make sure no one tries to get them to drink something etc….

The fight was rescheduled for the 25th. Here is the result. No spoilers.

Born in Australia, training in martial arts since the age of 9. My first trip to Thailand was back in 2007. Since then i have made numerous visits back to the "land of smiles" to feed my addiction of Muay Thai. During the month of November in 2010 i had to decide between working a 9 to 5 job back home for the rest of my life, or sell all my worldly possessions and move to Thailand to live and train for the next few years. Thankfully i chose the latter. I now spend my time training Muay Thai, meeting new and interesting circles of people, sipping coconuts under palm trees on the beach and measuring the cost of everything on how much Pad Thai i could buy with that money.
