First of all I need to say well done to Steve Logan. What a great show and what a great person. This was the first Muaythai show for some of my students and they were amazed. Steve you are a credit to Muaythai in Birmingham and the Midlands. The Tower Ballroom is a fantastic venue and you host some of the most exciting fights.
There was one shock towards the end of the show and that was the decision of the last fight. I think talking about this would not take any attention away from such a great show. There for I am going to say that I believe the decision was wrong and Nathan Bendon should have recieved the nod. From round three he took the fight to Pindi Madahar scoring well and keeping composed. I don't recall Nathan being kicked across the ring but what I do remember was Nathan hitting Pindi with some ferocious punches and nearly removing his head from his shoulders lol. Nathan also landed a lot of rib kicks and countered back with a lot of rib kicks followed by flurries of punches. Round 4 was close but I think what won him the fight was how well Nathan performed in the 5th. He kicked Pindi to floor at the start of the round and nearly knocked him out just before the bell went. I do not understand the margins from the score cards. Prehaps a seperate thread is needed for this topic to continue. What I found most amazing was the support shown for Pindi and Nathan with no trouble at the end even though the decision was incorrect. Great sportsmanship from every one.
Another great quality of Steve Logan is finding and matching some of the best up and coming fighters for his events.
Sam Omomgobe, Nathan Epps and Lee Johnson will no doubt be some of the biggest attractions in Muaythai in the following years to come. They all won by knock out and looked incredibly good. They performed like veterans and my students were suprised that all of the just mentioned have under 10 fights each to their names.
Once again, well done to Steve and all fighters and Instructors that participated at the event.
Thanks
