Many thanks to Duangaes for taking the time to upload and share!  I normally rag on the guys for not putting on credible match ups, but this was an exception… great fight.  The more I watch Pinca the more I become a fan.  Not a huge fan of Amrani’s mean mugging but whatever… I think he thought he was going to come in a intimidate Pinca (Who was the previous years Thai Fight Champion) but then he forgot… Pinca’s pimp hand is strong!

My one criticism of the event is the shitty camera work.  How much fight footage did we miss because the camera man was panning on some girl in the audience!

  1. WAR!!!

  2. Haha wow, Mosab is such a douchebag really! Nice fight though, love watching pinca

  3. not only did we miss footage showing the girls but the zooming in on each round REALLY fucked it up. itwas extremely fucking dumb, like at what point did they decide people can do without a couple seconds from a fight?

    anyways was rooting for my boy fabz the whole time. it was a douche v douche contest with mosab taking the win for the biggest douche ive ever seen fight and fabio taking the win for the fight

  4. I wonder if Pinca got a double Knockdown for taking Mosab and the Ref down with the same kick.

    • CTFU!!!! TOO FUNNY!!!!

  5. Fabio has an attitude but damn what a fighter

  6. Yet another example why traditional composed Muay Thai whether done by a farang or not is superior to spazzy-ass jump around and swing for the fences Dutch kickboxing (unless it’s K-1 heavyweights, i love me some K-1 heavyweights, but that’s something different altogether)…Fabio absorbed some shots and felt Mosab out in the first round and completely picked him apart in the third round with superior rhythm, timing and most importantly picking his shots and striking decisively.

    I believe it was those clinch dumps and leg catches that really took the most out of Amrani, he was completely open to them all night. For the record i wouldn’t talk so much crap about Dutch/Morrocan KB if the fighters had better attitudes but it seems that most of the Dutch/Moroccan KB guys have some major tough guy ego issues.

    • Then again i guess i could say something similar about snobby french fighters, but at least the majority of them are very technical fighters with a nice, visually-pleasing Muay Thai style.

      • Not all Dutch/Morrocan kickboxers are bad, Faldir Chahbari and Mohammed Khamal seem like very nice humble guys. For example, In this video the only guy that came off as a jerk was Amrani, he was talking crap about Khamal in the 3rd person, right in front of him during the interview, talk about classless:

        • @Tibun…and sorry to get off-topic, it’s known that the majority of dutch kickboxers are very boxing-lowkick oriented, but I’d say guys like Faldir and Mohammed are some of the few exceptions and have very good well-rounded styles too and would hold their own in full-rules MuayThai, Faldir is blind in one eye but is real slick and fights better than most fighters with two eyes. Mohammed beat Liam Harrison recently, i think some of these dutch guys need to get into full Muay Thai more, it would be interesting to watch.

          • “Mohammed beat Liam Harrison”….Maybein the judges’ cards but I bet u a lot of us would beg to differ.

    • Tibun-

      Agreed, his timing is amazing. How about his switch knees, when meeting Amrani’s overhand?

      It’s no surprise that Kem, singled Fabio out as an exceptional fighter…

    • Very perceptive. It’s never good to paint a whole people with the same brush however when I trained in Holland the only guys with the “i’m tougher than the american attitude” were unfortunately the morrocan’s. I experienced this at Vos,FFC,LOTUS and Mikes in oostzaan. It was’nt until after i sparred and kinda beat some respect outta them did I get any. They get a bad rap in holland and sometimes it’s spot on.

  7. I love it when the ref goes down w/ the fighters. It’s just a funny thing to see

  8. Damn, just saw Mosab’s stank attitude knock the water bottle out of one of someone’s hands right after the decision was announced

    • As far as I can tell, the guy offering Amrani the bottle is last year’s Thai Fight finalist Yousself Boughanem. I never liked Mosab’s attitude but this fight really seals it for me: the guy is a jerk. I liked how Pinca, who himself is a bit of a bad boy, just stayed cool and methodically dismantled him. French MT FTW.

      • French MT FTW!!!!!!!!!

  9. shit that was an entertaining fight! I was going to pass on watching this one but im glad I didnt.. I usually only watch the thai nak muays coz I love thier style is so natural and technique.. but fabio is one of those few exceptions I can make time to watch and not fast forward most of it lol .. great fighter.

  10. Amrani is a freaking douchebag and a embarrassment to the world of fighting as well as the world of Martial Arts all together. Fabio Pinca is no angel but as S.E mentioned earlier Amrani wins the Oscar for the biggest dickhead (no homo) in the world of kickboxing. Not only did he try to step up to Fabio after the bell rung after the (second round?)…..but he smacked the water bottle outta Fabio teammates hands after the fight when he tried to congratulate him and offered him the customary/traditional drink of water. I didn’t like Amrani before…but now it’s worst.
    And why would u try to stare down someone who is obviously outta your league and why would u raise ur hand at the end of the fight when the fight was nowhere the vicinity of being a close fight!!! smh

  11. I first heard of Pinca after seeing Attachai pick him apart on an older vid. WHat stuck with me was heart..he stuck it in and made war//blow for blow. I was impressed and try to watch him whenever Nop finds us some stuff. I like his traditional style. I knew he would war with this guy, but before opening bell after seeing Mosab doing the badboy walk around as if he was DMX, I was hoping Pinca would show no mercy. And whats that drama at the bell..he wanted to start a fight, while in a fight!? Too much testosterone, not enough neural matter

  12. i like how pinca looked at amrani with his arms out right after the fight and was like, “what now bitch? i fucked you up.” instead of the traditional hug.

    • hahah he was like” I can keep doing this all night, DMX!”

    • Also funny was the gesture he made when he saw Amrani raise his hand as they awaited a decision: he pointed at his as if to say “is this guy for real?”.

  13. Reason #1 not to piss off/bully an excellent fighter – retaliation with elbows to show who the real boss is.

  14. now Fabio is scheduled to fight Kem (thai fight finals), then Saenchai (yokkao extreme) and then Buakaw (nuit des titans @Lyon, 17 March 2012)..from a wannabegangsta to some real gangstas

    • Wow good for Fabio. Seems to be having the “Best week ever=”. Khem fight should be a malice filled one. Ok so when we finally gonna see Khem and Buakkaw? Seems as though in this show Khem wants to clinic and upstage Buakkaws show. He had an easy opponent but sure but on an tecnhik demonstration..
