Alex Rivas, that's what you get when you spit your mouthpiece on purpose trying to buy some extra recovery time - you get smashed by an absolute wrecking machine.

Was an excellent tournament. Yoshiki Takei was unstoppable !

Has anyone been able to find the full fight of the Kaew vs Kuniya fight? I have seen the first three rounds, but apparently went to a fourth and apparently Kaew got a point deducted?

yes for excessive clinching I believe. Kaew should have been awared the victory over the 3 rounds anyway. not a good fight.

 

[anorak]

yeh I thought he deserved it after 3

[Kanka]

So Phetphangan lost?

 

[Khonda]

So Phetphangan lost?

He got murked in two minutes, had no answer for the hand speed and counters of his opponent. I'm not even sure he scored a clean strike...

 

[Vaio]

So Phetphangan lost?

By 1st round KO. He was totally dominated.

Any idea why Kaew's corner kicked him??!!

English commentary, that's huge. Really makes it more interesting to follow & watch. If only there were betting odds it would be can't miss.

 

[SuperLuigi]

I hadn't seen the extension round until now. I thought Rukiya actually won it cleanly without the point deduction, so he did better than Noiri did.

 

[UWanaPlayDaGame]

But Kaew should've won without the extra round. clearly won the 1st and 3rd IMO.

his corner kicking him was bizarre and definitely played up.

I would prefer they not do English commentary if it is going to be as awful as this. I don't speak Japanese, but at least their commentators sound like they're actually into the fight. These guys sound like they're being forced to watch their kids.

Good fight though. I'm a couple beers in, but I don't see how Rukiya won that at all. I scored rounds one and three for Kaew; second round would be a draw or leaning towards Kaew as well, IMO. The point deduction was pretty silly too. There were five seconds left in the fight. C'mon.

Japan will Japan

 

[Yodsanan]

I tend to be less mad about bad decision, when the fight was horrible.

I haven't checked it out yet but I immagine the English commentary is done well after the event not live in a recording studio (like the early PrideFC events) so you won't be able to have the same level of enthusiasm.
