This fight is very interesting. But not because it is from the most popular Muay Thai reality show “Contender Asia” but what interest me is that Yodsaenklai seemed to get much more advantage over Bruce in terms of both power and strategy but he looked not to use maximum of his advantage and potential to give KO to Bruce. Even though he showed the great power of punches and kicks but I strongly believe that he could do better than that. Bruce also had very good skills of Muay Thaibut still not enough to fight with Yodsaenklai, especially for his defensive technique to block the kicks, as his friend said that he should not use arms to block kicks and use leg instead. However, it was a good fight to learn.

The strongest one

During the week, I think there was nothing special after Rafik gone. A fighter is a fighter. After the fight, anger feeling was gone. The loser accepted the referee decision, the winner respected the loser. Like Dzhabar said, “Respect the fight. but not the mouth”.

Turning to the elimination fight, Yodsaenklai was fighting against Bruce. In my opinion, Bruce is a good fighter. He has good skills and strength. However, when facing Yodsaenklai, it was a different story. It is not that Bruce was not good, but it is Yodsaenklai that is very strong. His weapons were super fast, accurate and strong. I think he was not 100% because I see only his kicks and punches. He didn’t use his knees and elbows much.

So far, I think Yodsaenklai will go to the final.

Here is their fight:
