Once again many thanks to the MMA Interview team for getting such nice footage of the fight and of course sharing it with us. A really strong performance by both guys. Didn’t actually go the way I thought it was going to go.
*** SPOILER***
I typically find Sagetdao a very boring fighter to watch. He’s got a great knees and clinching but i’ve never found him a very exciting fighter. It was a great match between these two. I think Kevin brought the fight out of Sagetdao, I’ve never seen him throw such a flurry of elbows, he was definitely out to end this quickly, a far cry from his clinch and knee style that i’m used to .

sagatdao’s style always trips me out…he seems so damn passive but ends up coming out on top after taking initial flurries which could easily get him ko’ed. this was like the tortoise vs the hare fight

I’ll pay good $$ ANYDAY to watch a Top Thai beat up on a American! LOL!! Props to Kevin man! I think that he did well for maybe the 1st and 2nd rd but after that Sagetdao’s corner must have told him that he has to get inside as Kevin was trying to keep him at the end of his punches, of course lookin for the KO.. I’m pretty stoken to see that American Nak Muay are moving up in competition.. Dee Jai Duay Ka!!!

If there are more bouts like this in North America, Muay Thai will gain the popularity and attention it deserves!!! Great fight!

Sawatdee krap!!!
Very good. Skill wise under true muay thai scoring, Sagatdao still beat Kevin soundly. However, Kevin still brought the fight like usual. Maybe next time bring someone more aggressive, like Saiyok? If weight can match..

sagetdao clearly had to step it upa gear to win tho, I think.When he started getting the elbows out its seemed like he knew he was in a fight.I completely agree with Nop aswell, I really dont like watching him that much.Loads of UK guys seem to really like him but I think his style is boring to watch.(obviously hes dead good, Im talking comparitivley.)In the few fights of kevin ross iv seen I think this was one of his best performances?

Would be sick to see Saiyok with Ross, but the weight is diff for Ross, I think.

Kevin Ross vs Ikuysang…that would be beautiful fight..combos and counters..a great show!

Cheers to Kevin-he brought it from opening bell. I sensed Sag was stunned at first..and i did hear him say here that he realized he underestimated his opponent.
Either way, great day for the sport here, I sure hope it can carry on this momentum-There are many trainers and fighters that don`t see limelight that are working very hard to put on shows, fill shows and get a following. Its nice to see the scene get rewarded with these kinds of shows.

saiyok / ross not a good fight I dont think, saiyok is another animal all together
