Boxing In Thailand: Friday Night Results

There were two good cards last night in Thailand and we commence proceedings with a big show in Ratchaburi, where 39 year old long-time WBO Asia Pacific Super Flyweight Champion Pramuansak “The Machine Gun” Posuwan, 43-1-1 (23), won his 14th contest on the bounce by stopping Filipino opponent Javier Malulan, 12-4 (7), in the eighth round.

Posuwan retains his crown for the seventh time during his second reign as WBO Asia Pacific titlist and hasn’t lost since a failed bid to upset full WBO Champion Fernando Montiel in 2005.

On the undercard, PABA Super Fly beltholder Duangpetch Saengmorakot, 39-1-1 (15), outpointed Anthony Esmedina, 4-5-2 (0), in a non-title six rounder and veteran Samransak Singmanassak, 33-19-1 (26), won a six rounder against Albert Alcoy, 5-2-3 (2).

On another show in Pattaya, former WBC Asian Boxing Council Lightweight Champ Saddam Kietyongyuth, 15-0 (11), regained his title with a first round finishing of JR Sollano, 13-8 (9), of the Philippines.

In a six rounder, ex-WBA Super Feather Champ Yodsanan Sor “3k Battery” Nanthachai, 56-3-1 (45), won his 12th contest in a row after losing his title three years ago by stopping tough Filipino southpaw Jimrex Jaca, 28-5-3 (13), in the final frame.
