Akimoto vs. Petchtanong | ONE Championship Full Fight

[@typernate]

Petchtanong's team for this match is pretty insane: - Superbon (ONE Featherweight Kickboxing champion): game-plan strategist - Nong-O (ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai champion): sparring partner #1 - Petchpanomrung (Glory Featherweight and RISE Super Lightweight champion) : sparring partner #2 - Diesellek (former Rajadamnern champion): pad holder, cornerman - Rodtang (ONE Flyweight Muay Thai champion) : personal bodyguard

But I believe he still has the chance to make it to the top as long as he has to be himself who focuses on the present time of learning new techniques of kyokushin karate styles instead of focusing on his loss from the past, he will rebuild himself and will soon win against petchtanong and bring back his Bantamweight Kickboxing World Championship belt!👊🏼

Petchtanong lost to Capitan but most people don't know that Petchtanong was a very short notice opponent for Capitan. Petchtanong only has 4-7 days to train while Capitan was already in a camp for a month or more. Capitan was originally scheduled to fight Petrosyan, Yodsanklai or Sittichai at Featherweight ( 154 lbs ) but after mister Boat ( the owner of Petchyindee Academy ) saw that Capitan was too out of shape to fight at 154 lbs against the elite there so they decided to make Capitan boil down to 145 lbs ( Bantamweight ) and so they quickly searched for an opponent there a few days before the fight and it was Petchtanong was answered the call.

[@discipleaj]

Big Akimoto fan, I think he's superb. However, he just didn't have an answer for Petch's clinch game here and this was definitely not a split decision lol. Petch was so fast coming in to the clinch, powering his strike home using knees and then exiting, it was perfectly executed. I have no idea why Akimoto's corner were not advising him to either parry/stay out of the way or look to catch and sweep so that it dissuade's Petch from throwing those KO style knees. He didn't do enough to punish Petch for throwing his main weapon. It would have been a very different fight had this happened. I was very surprised given how Akimoto had handled previous thai opponents in contrast to his performance tonight. But what also must be understood is that as elite as all these guys are, sometimes on the night it's not your night. Illness, injury, personal problems, lack of sleep etc. life doesn't stop and fighters cannot be perfect all the time. I sincerely hope Akimoto comes back much stronger from this as he really embodies everything great about martial arts. Petch should have taken the victory here with all judged scoring in his favour as he clearly outworked Akimoto and did way more damage. What was good to see was that he didn't manage to break Akimoto or get into his head per se. I'm most disappointed with Akimoto's corner and how they did not have an answer for Petch's clinch and knees which was the bulwark of Petch's strength in this fight. Overall, great display of techniques and a good championship fight. 👏🏻

This isn't a Muay Thai fight. Under kickboxing rules, throws and sweeps are not allowed. One thing that he could've done was to teep Petch away and wait for an opportunity to follow up with kicks. But then it's easier to say than done as Petch was evasive and circling around while waiting for a chance to strike with roundhouse kick or close up the distance with the deadly knee.

[@discipleaj]
