The Contender Muay Thai

Thank God for that! I've been waiting for this for ages, then saw this thread and realised I'd forgotten about it! I thought i'd get to the end of the thread and find out I'd missed it

Gotta find it out which one of my 600+ channels has it now

 

JWP's Second fight is on this week...cannot wait

 

no way his shoulder dislocated 3 times. I think he bottled it under the punishment he was getting.

1st round he was superb, then when the fight turned real, he bottled it.

 

Hmmmm... not so sure about that... you could actually see the shoulder bone popping out... You are right about Zack taking punishment though. I don't think he'd have been able to withstand it.

Anyway, here's the video of the fight if you missed it:

He was allergic to being punched in the face, shoulder was a smokescreen or lucky for him.

 

I thought he started taking most of his punishment after his shoulder popped the first time.

Zidov came at him hard then

 

Zak is a good fighter guys dont be to harsh to judge,wait and watch the final where he boxes again that night

 

Yup, that's what it looked like to me. He had a great 1st round but as soon as his shoulder twinged then his confidence collapsed and Zidov went for him. TBH the way the show had been edited up until airing the fight it was practically a given that there was going to be a shoulder issue. Glad to hear we get another chance to see him in action in due course

 

Saw it again and you could see the problem, Ouch! Still didn't like recieving a punch though.

Last nights was a pro-binge drinking fight.

 

Pitu vs Joachim...
It did look like Pitu had his nose broken, and from that point, it was all over.
Joachim may have come through as over confident before the fight, but in fairness he was true to his word!

Here's the video of that fight:
Pitu vs Joachim

 

That was a good fight.

I felt really sorry for him, he trained so hard.

 

.....insult to injury that his opponent went out and got smashed just before the fight.

 

yup....

devastating, but the luck of the night.

 

What a dissappointing fight.

No way Naruepol went full out, I think he lost on purpose.

 

agreed. half hearted.

 

Don't think he wanted to hit his friend

 

Naruepol was like that in his first fight, cold and calculated -thats his style and it worked the first time. It didn't work this time round.
I think the best man won.

 

It was such a shame, because they are the top 2 fighters there imo, and it would have been a superb fight.

I think you're right, he valued the friendship more than the competition.

 

Is it just me or does it sound like some of the fighters (not the Thais) pronounce "Naruepol" as "Naruepong?" Is this some Thai language thing or just my crazy ears?

 

Go Sean!
