Agreed.

I would also like to see Aikpracha get in real fighting shape and get back to 155lbs. Those 5lbs make a difference for him. He's most dangerous at 67kg's and lower. His skills allowed him to pass his normal weight class but dont try to push the envelope here.

We will see Karim in Glory 6 in April.

A French karate based kickboxer KO´s a Thai nak muay under thai rules? Sherdog will implode.

According to 99% of Sherdog, this clearly shows that savate is and always has been superior to muay thai.

This also means that Gerard Gordeau's potent combination of savate and mma would allow him to step out of retirement and beat the ever living fuck out of Nathan Corbett and Tong Po at the same time.

It is his third try though lol.
It is not that rare like 10 years ago.

I'm sure a rematch will be set up some time in the future, although Aikpracha really shouldn't be fighting guys this big. Ghajji fights all the way up to 78kg and fights Nieky Holzken at 77kg in April

Aikpracha?

W Jordan Watson (71kg) PTS - December
W Fabio Pinca (67kg) PTS - March

Plus he beat Lidon... and better still, Prakiysaeng in the Lumpinee in 2012.
I think he issue here is his busy schedule, and fighting 160lbs guys instead of 147-154lbs guys.

Fuck "quality western opponents", I want to see Aikpracha vs. Sittichai II, with the Lumpinee & Thailand titles at stake. Undisputed world #1 bout.

[Yodsanan]

i think he is talking about Sittichai.

[Samurai Life]

nah he said "western opponents". The convo was about Aikpracha

strange, Aikpracha just beat arguably the best 70kg farang out there in December (don't bother bringing up the Ky/Jordan fight at that terrible judging) and he beat Lidon and Pinca in 2012 at 70 and 67kg respectively

Time for some to open that dusty champagne bottle I guess.
