Default Kampan Swantaweesook vs Michael

Sounds like this was an awesome fight. If anybody can find video please let me know.

Round 1- Kampan starting well with some left kicks so heavy you'd think a heavyweight threw them, Tomahawk with sold defense and landing some meaty punches. The skill level and timing of these two fighters is on another level. Both with agressive attacks and well timed counters. They touch gloves at the end of the round, very close round..

Round 2- Kampan's kicks have gotten harder, though Tomahawk isn't showing any signs of pain. Tomahawk lands a nice straight right/left hook combo. Kampan timing his kicks to perfection every time Tomahawk comes into his range. Tomahawk lands a few punches before the end of the round, Kampan scored with a dozen or so brutal kicks.

Round 3- Kampan lands a low kick at the end of a punch combo that swept Tomahawk off his feet. Tomahawk crushes in an overhand right followed by a Matrix like jump knee. Kampan controlling the range now with teeps and round kicks and clinching when Tomahawk launches in. Tomahawk just misses with a spinning back elbow.

Round 4- Tomahawk upping the pace this round landing barrages of punches and elbows. Kampan feeling the heat is moving his head more and looking to clinch. Kampan has a head of granite the way he's eating Tomahawks punches and not going down. Occasionally Tomahawk is swinging so hard with his punches that Kampan slips to his back and delivers knees, they've got to be scoring well with the judges.

Round 5- Tomahawk virtually flying forward with his attacks now, Kampan showing all the savvy of a Thai veteran in avoiding the almost fatal strikes. Kampan dumping Tomahawk from the clinch a few times in a show of brute strength. Tomahawk throwing his full arsenal of jumping attacks. Tomahawk takes the decision. Very close fight.


Was it as good as people are saying? I need to see this fight lol.

Was a great fight. Bit of a head scratcher when they read out the score cards though.

He fought like this when he fought Mark Sarracino too.

Yeah sounds like a hell of a fight. Does anybody know if there will be a video available to see? I'm a huge fan of both these guys, I feel like I am being cheated not being able to watch it.

Yeah I'd love to see the fight both for the quality of the fighters and to see just how bad the decision was.
