Unfortunately the judges and the referee did it again since most of them were against to the Thai. From the technical point of view, the Thai was much better than Robin and good enough to have won this fight. I’m a good fan of Robin by I don’t agree with this result. This isn’t the first time since robin won a championship against to Sitichai in controversial way thanks to the good help of the judges involved. Shame to all them. Anyhow, Robin will regret tomorrow when he wakes up and found out that his body right side is in total pain and red as hell.
Daylight robbery…
