In a text message from Thailand, world-roving boxing correspondent Carlos Costa has informed that undefeated Thailander Kwanpichit 13 Rien Express dominated visiting Filipino flyweight Fernando Ocon to retain his WBO Oriental Title by unanimous decision at the Bangla Stadium in Phuket, Thailand this afternoon. Scores were 117-111, 118-110 and 120-108 all in favor for the Thai champion.
Kwanpichit put constant pressure on Ocon by going to the body that apparently hurt the Filipino who back-pedaled all night, according to Costa. Kwanpichit has now upped his record to 17-0-0 with 6 stoppages while Ocon, the Philippine flyweight title-holder, suffered his second defeat for a 10-2-0 (2KO) record.
