 Sea Nao admits he can not wait to see the hot match of this year between Kongsak and Oh which he compares with the old boxing rivalry between Sirimongkol and Put. He sees many similarities between the two duels and expects that the fight between Kongsak and Oh will be an exciting affair.
In Kongsak and Oh, Wirat ‘Sea Nao’ Wachirattanawong, the number one promoter responsible for the Suek Lumphini Champion Krerkkrai program on Friday 10 June, has picked one of the best boxing pairs of the present time to fight one another.
Other than that, there will also be 9 championship fights including Oh Kai Yang Ha Dao, “the best boxer of the sport press year 2006”, defending his 130-pound championship title against Kongsak Sit Boonmee, who has just won the best boxer title as well. The two will be fighting at 127.5 pounds.
The fans have been talking about this fight every day because the two boxers will prove who the best present boxer is. Oh is a senior and heavier boxer but for this fight, he has reduced his weight to fight Kongsak, who has not lost to anyone for 10 continuous fights. Sea Nao admits that, as a promoter, he can not wait to see this match. He also compares the pair with Sirimongkol Louk Siripat and Put Lhorlek (or Vichannoi Pornthavee) who were two of the great fighters of the past.
“Let’s say that this is a very important fight because the two boxers have equal quality. If we have to compare them with boxers from the past, I would say they have similarities to Sirimongkol and Put. For Kongsak, he is akin to Sirimongkol because he has a hard kick and sharp punch. As for Oh, he is quite similar to Put or Vichannoi because of his fast pace.
“I agree that it will be a huge fight and we cannot predict the winner. The match will be exciting and I, once again, can not wait for it. And I think the fans feel the same as I do because this fight between the two boxers is considered to be a fight for pride--a competition for the best boxer of the present time,” explained Sea Nao.
