[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

At the Ariake Colosseum in Tokyo, Japan, Pongsaklek Wonjongkam (75-3-1, 39 KOs) upset previously undefeated Koki Kameda (22-1, 14 KOs) to win the WBC flyweight title with a twelve round majority decision in a very tough fight for both guys. The scores were 114-114, 115-112 and 116-112. [Click Here To Read More]

I'm not a Kameda fan in the least, but he definitely was the busier of the two and I had him winning the fight. Pong has his moments, but he was hardly accurate or busy enough. It looks to me that by awarding Pong the victory, it sets up a 5th meeting between him and Naito.

i had it 114-113 for wonjongkam

it was a hard fight to score. kind of a koki would do good then wonj would do good type fight.


its weird but koki doesn't seem that experianced in there for being such a vet. if he went after him more he was the bigger guy, that would of won it for him

Koki lost and that makes me happy because his bandwagon was out of control.

Not an upset at all in my opinion.

Not a lot of casual fans understand that Wonjongkam is a hell of a fighter.

We don't get much coverage over here in the states but the guy is knocking on ATG status at or around his weight class with his resume'.

He's 20-1-1 in world title fights. That's impressive.

19-1-1 unless one counts the two interim title fights he had between Naito IV and Kameda which would make it 21-1-1 (and, really, they shouldn't count those two...interim fights are bs)

Yes, the lineal champion was Koki Kameda aleady. Wonjongkam became the lineal champ again. And, also now won the The Ring title which was vacant.
