Round5

The high-light of this fight is the round 4-5 when both of fighter seems to be very tired and they trying very hard to take the opponent down as at the same time trying to rescue themselves to survive through the match. When Samranchai looks as if he has maintain his standard of fighting but Menno was also very good. It is really good to see foreigner could fight within full Muay Thai rules and he could perform everything that Muay Thai could apply. Menno, kicks and clinch as well as reversed elbow almost take Samranchai down. If I was the referee at that time, it might be really hard to make decision as they both were equal in skills.
