BANGKOK, Thailand — Australian Nick Midgley and Thailand's own Apisit Sangmuang made weight for their collision for the vacant WBF Australasian Heavyweight title.

The 10-round rumble is all set to unfold today, Sunday August 10, in Bangkok, Thailand.

Will the heavily tattooed Nick Midgley born in Melbourne be the one to score a title win in the beautiful Land of Smiles?

Or will it be tough Apisit Sangmuang, fueled by the energy and support of his home crowd the one to be called “The New?”

The event is staged by Thai promoter Samita Xanthavanij, supervised for the WBF by Alvin S. Go of Cavite, Philippines.
