"P4P no.1!" Chocolatito-vs-Thai Bang Bang Merchant - (Golovkin-Jacobs undercard)

[wanderingfighter]

This was a very good fight. I thought it was fantastic how they would touch gloves/ hug at the end of each round and nod appreciation to each others efforts. I had Gonzalez winning a razor thin decision; a draw at the very least. That Gonzalez is fighting in his forth weight class in his late 20s at these lower divisions shows his class. Quality fight from both guys.

This is a Thai thing. They do the same while trying to take each others face out with elbows at Lumpini in Muay Thai matches. Thai sparring is also playful and relaxed. They put a big emphasis into keeping tension away during a fight. This does not only breeds this type of sportsmen, but it also breeds huge punchers and fighters with very good stamina.
