Nice fight with good action but quite difficult to judge even after having a fourth round. As expected the Thai was kicking better and Enriko boxing better. Honestly the result could had go either way so it was OK this time since Enriko won the first by split decision which should be also the case for this fight instead having unanimous decision but I guess the Thai was fighting as local
I gave sittichai rounds 1, 2, and 4. how’d you see it?
I tend to agree with you on those rounds since the better kicks and knees were always connected by Sittichai who displayed also a better variety of kick boxing techniques.

good fight. I think the decision was a good one. Sittichai landed consistently to the legs and to the body with kicks, knees and punches. Gogokhia landed some good punches sporadically throughout the fight but had little to show for it except a big shot in round 1 and a decent flurry at the end of round 3. I saw Sittichai taking rounds 1,2, and 4. I gave Gogokhia round 3 because of how he ended.
