I hope Chocolatito takes a break...
Gonzalez has been going at a furious pace. Let the headbutts and cuts fully heal. I Wouldn't have him fighting again till Dec at the earliest or Jan. He needs the break.

What's the deal with Sor Rungvisai? According to his BoxRec, 13 different fighters have made their pro debut against him, including his two previous fights before Chocolatito. His BoxRec also says what they list as his debut, was actually his 12th pro fight and he had a reported 8-3 record going in. Just looking at his BoxRec page, his entire career has basically been scrubs and debuts, with a few exceptions

Did the WBC or Commision enforce this rule?
Accidental Injuries from Head Butts, Elbows, or other Accidental or Illegal Actions (injury). The following description applies to injuries from not only
head butts and elbows, but from any other accidental or illegal action as well.
a)
Unintentional/accidental injury. When a boxer suffers a cut, abrasion, or excessive swelling due to an unintentional/accidental head butt, elbow, etc.
If the bout continues:
• A point will be deducted from the uninjured boxer. This point deduction will compensate the advantages acquired by the uninjured boxer.
Note: I don't believe in such a rule being applied but I point this out on general principle of fairness to all fighters equally ; I know Cuadras benefited from this rule by the WBC vs. Rungvisai, if they went by these rules according to the WBC there was a failure on the part of the ref or commission.
Can someone with more knowledge on this issue speak up?

Also, the prince of back acne looked like **** against a dude with 5 draws. Roman won a close tough fight against a dude that hobbies as a ram when he isn't boxing.

Thai fighters often fight 5 or 6 times a year - the earning potential is much lower there. The type of events are different, Thai sport is very inward looking - a double edged sword. It means easier to hype up bizarre matchups, but it means outsiders need to really study their world to understand it. This is why it's so hard for people on here to understand how a fighter with a seemingly dubious record can dethrone the best fighter in the world
