Sawatdee Khrup!

Alongside Richard I too judged Frank as winning an extremely close fight. The crieria for me was the same, the front round kick was countering Tim's punch low kick combos and this scores higher. I know Tim will be disappointed as no doubt due to the closeness of the fight he amongst others would have thought he won. However judges descisions, however unpopular sometimes, are 'decisions' and not 'opinions' and are based upon scoring criteria, proximity to the fight, experience and of course judgement. I appreciate that there will be some 'opinions' made regarding the decision as there always will be in a close fight.
What is more important though is that two great British athletes put on a fantastic performance both fighting from the heart and 'both' should be commended. Frankie is now the world champion but I know Tim will be starting to put this behind him and no doubt look towards a re-match and I belive that will be an even greater fight.

As a footnote Andy Thrasher v Phil Pullen was amazing both guys were tremendous and a credit to our sport a win that Andy had to earn from Phil as neither guy was going to give it away.
