Here are the thoughts of veteran MMA journalist James Goyder,
“This should be a very intriguing fight and it will be a chance for fight fans in Bangkok to get a glimpse at two highly rated local fighters. MAJOR has a solid MMA record and will be the more experienced of the two fighters, although PYRO will have learned a lot from going three rounds in his debut fight.
PYRO might feel he is the stronger striker having trained extensively in Thailand but I expect MAJOR to be a well rounded fighter. Both are in excellent shape and will be more than ready to go the full three rounds.” he said.
