Seanchai vs. Shinya Ishige

November 12th, 2007 · 13 Comments

I’m pretty sure this is the latest fight with Saenchai, WeLoveKamatari informed me it was from this summer. It’s great to see him active. Although judging by the size of this guy, Saenchai is probably having problems finding people who want to fight him.

It isn’t the whole fight; it looks like we are missing 2 rounds. Classic Saenchai… It’s got to be incredibly frustrating to fight him. His timing and attacks are so unorthodox. He’s such a “sticky” fighter, it seems every time Shinya attacks his limbs get tangled with Saenchai’s.

I think the one aspect that I’m continually baffled and impressed with are his grappling skills. When he wraps up these guys, it’s almost like their standing on ice. His ability to toss people on their backs is astounding. Seriously I can’t think of a Nak Muay who’s a better grappler. Am I missing someone?

His “onorthodoxness” ilooks extremely frustrating for his opponent.

Fucking A….

I can’t get enough of this guy. He is such a freak. His arsenal, and his creativty in using it, is just amazing. He even did that crazy cartwheel kick only he can pull off.

I’ve always been impressed with Buakaw’s grappling strength, and the way he just throws the K1 guys around. But that’s part of the reason he can do it so easily; they are K1 guys, not born-and-raised Muay Thai guys.

Seanchai’s grappling is just far and away superior to anyone I know. I mean, he just toys with this guy, and he’s so much smaller than him. I can’t believe how easily he wings high kicks OVER this guy’s head, too.

Seanchai reminds me of Samart Payakaroon in his heyday. He’s got so many weapons, and looks so fluid using all of them. Pound-for-pound the current best in MT, by quite a wide margin, in my opinion.

Saenchai is such a entertaining fighter who don’t only win on points but he shows skills that you rarely get to see in the ring. His grappling skills are so good, and he uses them well against bigger and stronger opponents.. I love how fighters like him, Somrak, Namsaknoi, Samart and Attachai give a show to the audience.

Seanchai is just so unorthodox, it just throws everyone off. While most people react like robots by throwing combinations that are embeded in their minds through repetitive training, he just throws what feels good to him at the time..lol…That’s just amazing. He’s like the Michael Jordan of Muay Thai, he wins and makes it look easy.

It has to be so frustrating to fight someone who knows they already have the fight won before the fight begins and just toys with you and entertains the crowd at the same time..and there’s nothing u can do about it….lol.
