agreed jesse. scoring was a bit out to say the least. At least two rounds were even and one of the rounds Kierans. The WBC clearly states in its prefight meeting that they will not be using the 'stadium gamblers' scoring and that every round would be scored (no asterixs) in their own words! and if you think one fighter scored greater than another you would give that round to that fighter not wait till the next to do so. All techniques would score the same no matter what and if the technique used was more effective and more damaging or off balancing then it would score higher. There is no favouritism toward any of the weopons and power would be taken into consideration.

The thai didnt bother ki one bit and apart from the occasional teeb he received the greater punishment in the fight in terms of landed damaging punches and elbows. He was rocked a good few times but did produce the greater work rate and use his leg and knee more giving him the victory but not with the landlside suggested. He was unable to really off balance Kieran in the clinch and was pretty much negated.His scoring came from the kicks and side knees thrown. I am glad to see that the WBC are using this more sensible style of scoring although I feel it will take time for its implementation worldwide and within the WBC. It will give rise to a bigger more widespread audience that will appeal to the masses not just the stadium gamblers and get our sport the coverage it needs.

I was pretty pleased with Kierans fight really considering he fought 4 weeks before against another good thai(not in the same league though) travelling to and from thailand 4 times and is still nursing a horrific training cut. Dan thai is thailand ranked no 8, lumpinee ranked number 9, raja ranked number 8, channel 7 ranked number one and omnoi number 8. He has recently beaten the Lumpini ranked number one and is WMC ranked 7 and WBC RANKED number 1. This has got to be the most decorated thai of current to ever fight in the UK and was in tip top shape! This guy is a current star!!! to be ranked in every stadium, both the two main organisations and Thailand ranked this makes him the hottest property we have had here in terms of current stadium thai fighters. On this basis we are pleased that Kieran can get in there and give the guy all the trouble in the world. A rematch is inevitable for such a good fight and Kieran has prooved he can mix with the stadiums best.

I was very pleased with Saab and Richards title performances taking back two more titles to the gym and hopefully next time Kieran will take that title from Danthai. over and out.
