A great deal of mutual respect came about,on both sides, during the era in which Ramon fought in Thailand...On the one hand, a new respect for the power and potential in the hand techniques of western boxing, and on the other, a great deal of respect gained for Muay Thai, among those Westerners who were not yet aware of the level of full contact Thai martial arts, and of their true skill, effectiveness and ability... At that time, there were still a lot of people in the West who as yet had no idea.. The mutual respect gained on both sides was quite profound and far-reaching, in the end, and notably changed the approach and the training methods and focuses of many of the nak muay, and many more Western kickboxers respectively. This phenomenon has only continued to evolve along such lines ever since...Max respect, Ramon Dekkers, RIP.....And max respect also, to the many nak muay, from every nation, following this martial path in life.

I love Dekkers but he lost every round in this fight! Uneducated people say that he won this fight and many more in Thailand that he should of won but people who know how to score muay Thai know the truth! Maybe these people should stop listening to Joe Rogan so much? 🤡

@@codyreece7871 I love it when so called "educated" farangs try to tell everyone how smart they are, while others" just dont understand". It was a fight. One guy punched so hard that they other had to use the clinch like his life depended on it. He used the clinch well, but other than that he got schooled.

People who think Ramon won this fight don’t know that punches are the lowest scoring attack in Muay Thai. Punches < kicks and knees.

And that's why Muay Thai has weak boxing, the point system encourages bad habits. In open rule fight punches are just as important as knees, and elbows.

In Thailand usually Dekker lost unless he KO'ed his opponent. He definitely should have won this one as well

ahn emea Absolutely agree. He was often robbed fighting in Thailand, particularly earlier on... In this fight, his opponent was even clearly reeling at numerous points from heavy punches, and Ramon did the most damage, thereby, of the two, throughout the fight...to be sure..The Thai fighter held dominance quite often in the clinch though, landing some intense bodywork using knees...Still, l too believe that Ramon had done enough to take the win again,... What a pioneer and fighting legend...RIP. Max respect, Ramon Dekkers.
Wow, that was a terrible decision. I do not like Dekkers at all but he won every round. I'm not surprised it was in Japan because they have the worst judges in the world. It wasn't as bad as Buakaw vs Masato, but it was a really bad decision. I hate saying that because I cannot stand Dekkers
