Sev­en­teen year old Yod­khon­pol Sit­mon­chai wins again and aims for the 122 lbs Lumpi­nee Title

Yod­khon­pol Sit­mon­chai is a young up & com­ing fighter on the Lumpi­nee Sta­dium cir­cuit. Here are his two most recent fights at Lumpi­nee, both impres­sive per­for­mances. This was an impres­sive first round knockout.

There was news prior to the fight that large wagers were placed on the fight by Som­luck, amongst oth­ers. Yod­khon­pol Sit­mon­chai made a strong state­ment in this fight with a great ko.

Here is Yod­khon­pol (Muu’s) most recent fight against Tingtong at Lumpini Sta­dium last Fri­day July, 27th.  A lot of good back and forth action in this fight.  I trip out on how tough these guys are. They both get hit with a lot of hard shots, the kind where the sweat is fly­ing every­where when they get hit. The next stop for the young man is the Lumpi­nee title.

Both ladies are very dec­o­rated with sev­eral titles. They are some of the best female Muay Thai fight­ers out there. This fight has been a long time coming.

They’ve been try­ing to make it hap­pen for a while but injuries, and other things have restricted it from hap­pen­ing sooner. Both ladies are not only extremely tal­ented fight­ers but smart, and beau­ti­ful as well. Killers in the ring, but ele­gant out in pub­lic. Both ladies seem very much dif­fer­ent. To the guys out there, which of these two beau­ti­ful ladies is more your type?

Check out WCK Muay Thai. They’re the pro­mot­ers of the event.
