    Doesn’t seem to look as cut as he did in the Kem fight but it might be due to the fact that he had to lose more weight fighting Kem but still looks good! War Yodsaenklai! Is it me or is MyMuayThai kind of dead as of recently?

    Wow! Seems like Yod put on a show and dominated a capable Gregory Choplin with a knockout in the 3rd round! I guess its safe to say for now Yods back!

    Yod looked very strong against Choplin. Landed a clean left body kick early on that knocked Choplin down. Landed a couple more throughout the fight. Knocked him down with the right hook for the 8 count. Followed with the straight left to the body, where the kicks landed, and that was that. Props to Choplin for continuing after those clean kicks to the body and the 8 count. He had to have been hurting. Don’t blame him at all for not answering the second count.
