KrungthepthongburiThe bout that kicked off the event was an amateur boxing match between Big Yen and Petchngentong Mor. Krungthepthonburi. Both women are from Thailand. This was neither woman’s first time competing under boxing rules, but there was a clear size difference between the two. Petchngentong, who usually fights at 45 kg, is usually a Muay Thai fighter but has had trouble getting bouts due to her size.Big YenPetchngentong and Big Yen standing across from each other in the ringPetchngentong with her corner, PatBig Yen gets the winSportswomanshipDuring the bout, Big Yen used her longer reach to her advantage.
