BOOM !!!!!!!!!!!!!
The 2nd fight to be announced for this show is one the re-match that every fight fan wants to see between yet another 2 amazing fighter’s on this show.
This fight brings 2 genuine Superstars of Muay Thai together and this is the re-match that the world wants to see.
So UK SuperStar Dean James (Pra Chao Sua) World ISKA Champ and European WMC Champ will face Thailand’s SuperStar Rungravee (Sasiprapa Bangkok Thailand), Channel 7 Stadium Champion Bangkok and Muaythai Warriors World Champion.
This is what Dean’s instructor Tony Myer’s said after there 1st fight :
I am so very, very proud of Dean who put in an excellent performance showing real courage, power as well as technique against Rungravee. He demonstrated that in spite of the gulf in experience, he clearly deserves to be fighting at this level and really enjoyed the fight.
I hope this performance means he gets more opportunities to fight against such great opposition.
Dean's right body kick had seriously damaged Rungravee's arm in round one (Rungravee had his arm in a sling after the fight and it looked very swollen) but Rungravee showed nothing at all during the fight.
We didn’t even suspect he was hurt until he showed us his arm after the final bell. Rungravee had definitely not taken the fight lightly and had really done his homework stopping Dean's knee from the opening round onwards and catching most of Dean’s elbows on his gloves. Some of his sidesteps were sublime when he knew Dean needed to press his attack to try to take back the lead – great timing and skill.
Dean was slightly ahead going into the fourth showing good heart alongside some sharp and well timed attacks. During the early rounds Rungravee had landed some hard low kicks that took the spring out of Dean’s right leg and so he had no resistance against Rungravee’s throws.
Rungravee won the fight with a big fourth round swaying back from attacks and catching Dean’s hip and throwing him several times. While Dean pressed forward in the fifth, he needed a count to turn around Rungravee’s big round four and Rungravee was far too clever to allow that.
We had hoped and trained for Rungravee pressing forward and attacking as he has done previously against foreign boxers, but while may be known as a dangerous attack fighter he clearly demonstrated that he is very clever indeed, has some outstanding Muay Thai skills along with great courage too.
Great fight from both boxers.
And Its with great delight to announce "The rematch is on 8th March 2014"..
