Yokkao 17 & 18 in Bolton, England

[Maxread]

Hi guys. Been following combat sports since I was about 14 and I'm now 22. I watch my friend box on regional shows when I can but I've never been to a proper show. This will be my first actual event and I was just wondering if any of you guys went to 14 & 15 held in the same stadium (Bolton Wanderers' ground)? How much do they block off and how many people were there? Also do they sell programmes?

I'm from Swindon which is in the south of England and I've followed Tetsuya Yamato longer than I've followed Liam Harrison, so I'm gonna be the southern fairy cheering for a foreigner when a bunch of northerners are cheering their hometown boy essentially. Fully expecting a few evil eyes haha.

Seeing Manachai work will also be really good. Not a bad card for my first show and I'm super excited. Ringside tickets were only £60 which I think is a terrific price.

Would be fantastic to see some of you there!

I will legkick your head if I see you there.

Wasn't there but don't think the previous show was on the actual stadium. It was some room with maybe couple thousand people and absolutely packed.

Yokkao is desparate for Harrison to hold their ugly belt.

Breaking news: After a flashmeeting between fighters and promoters, YOKKAO officially announces that Liam Harrison vs Tetsuya Yamato will be valid for the YOKKAO World Title -65kg.

Doungjai Tananan, President of YOKKAO Boxing states: “the YOKKAO World Title is born from the common decision of our promoters to determine who is the best Muay Thai fighter in the World. As per our regulation, due to Pakorn’s three successive losses in a row, the YOKKAO World Title is officially vacant. The fact that one of Pakorn’s losses was against Tetsuya Yamato, already scheduled to fight Liam Harrison at YOKKAO 17, will give once again to Muay Thai fans the possibility to know who will be the best Muay Thai fighter -65kg in the World.”

With Muay Thai Federations emerging every year, the YOKKAO World Title is now considered by fans one of the hardest World Titles to win as there are no Federation limits or affiliations required for fighters in order to have the chance to fight for it.

^That would bother me if the Yokkao title was some prized title that everyone is striving to get, but considering its not I dont mind them doing this to bring more attention to the event.

Bro, did you not read? The Yokkao title has been selected by the fans as one of the hardest in the world and this fight will determine the #1 65 kilo fighter in the world! Yodwicha, Ritthevada, Manasak, Sensatarn, Singdam, Saenchai, Petboonchu, Chamuekpet, Yodpanomrung, Chujaroen, Petmorakot etc.. will bow to the winner of this fight.

Yokkao has been a great source of humor over the years LOL

 

[Kanka]

Sanny Vs Jordan rematch. Think Jordan will win this time

 

[Mafanofe]

lol

Yokkao always trying to push hard Jordan Watson and Harrison,dont get me wrong because both are good and cool to watch,especially Jordan Watson IMO,but this instant rule to made Pakorn vacate and give another single shot to Liam looked too intentional for me.


I pick Yamato winning by doc stoppage by cut on round 3

 

[Kanka]

Did they sponsor Jordan watson training in thailand too?LOL

 

[SuperLuigi]

Went to Yokkaos website and found this:

[Kanobag]

Anyone have a stream for this one?

 

[SuperLuigi]

What time does it start? Im not seeing any streams so far.

 

[Snubnoze707]

I don't think Yokkao ever shows events live, unless that has changed recently.

 

[Bang Rachan]

Good show last night. Jordan Watsons nose is messed up bad!!! It's so bent.
His fight was most probably the best of the night.



Also saw Stefania in the hotel. She looks a lot nicer in person
