Comments Thread For: Kameda-Wonjongkam: No Asian Judges Says Sulaiman

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Pong is reportedly past his prime, according to a man who saw his last ring outing. This is a good news though. Kameda is a notorious, controversial fighter. At least, he's recognized as such here in the land of the rising sun.

With a few exceptions, Wonjongkam has padded his record against crappy opposition. His last "defense," against a 20-8 Japanese fighter who had lost his previous bout and carried no punch, was pretty typical. Kameda by UD, no matter who they bring in to judge the fight.

Now, now.......behave. Pongsaklek is a legend, regardless of whom he has fought of recent. Besides, the Japanese are reknown for handing out very generous decisions for their home fighters. This can be seen especially against the Thai's, not only in boxing, but in K1 also. Buakaw has been on the wrong side of a raw deal on many an occasion. Not to mention other such Muay Thai fighters and boxers from the land of smiles.

I haven't seen the fight, but Japan doesn't really have as many controversial decisions as Germany and even frankly the US. I don't see Suliaman saying "No American Judges" when it comes to fights in America. Thank god though because that would be terrible.

Truthfully i find the japanese judging to be more than fair. since you, me, jupiter and silencers actually follow asian boxing, i dont think alot of these people are in any position to say much of anything.
