Those Thai fighters are something else.
All the thai legends have more than 250 fights. It is just insane.
They are always smiling and they are always respectful.
Huge respect to them.
But the Chinese fighter has no respect and shows no sport man ship. Made in China. LOL
Thai fighters take most of their beatings on their body and legs tbh. Reason they have way more fights then boxers and alot others
@@blasblasblas2094 and where are you made from?
@@blasblasblas2094 this is a fight sport not love story
@Ching Vang lmfao 🤣
Wang: *gets hit
Also Wang: *retaliates by hitting himself
No doubt half the damage from himself haha
🤣🤣🤣
Wang wasn't big enough or hard enough.
should count against him. they are strikes to his head xD
@@thedarksideoftheforce6658 underrated comment
Sam-A = Calmness, Precision Striking and Evasion. Wang = Brute Force.
He was just swinging without looking lol Sam had that in the bag
Juventud vs experiencia !

The bigger, taller guy lacked skills, speed, and agility. As you noted, he only has brute force and some decent kicking basics. Not sure why the fight was billed as a Muay Thai legend vs a kickboxing prodigy. The shorter guy's much better than the bigger, taller guy; but the skills exhibited were hardly legendary. Asians exaggerate way too much in their use of terms of "genius," "legend," "prodigy," etc.
@@kiabtoomlauj6249 Dude, "the shorter guy" you mentioned was multi-divisions Muay Thai champion from 2004-2011 including boxing titles with 427+ fights for his whole career.
He is well-derserved "Legend" title.
*Thai's boxer getting hit* : heal +10
as a big rpg fan this amused me a lot 🙌🏼
Lol. So cool to read that! Very original! Been playing RPGs since their inception.
Imagine catching knee shot on the head and still standing, meanwhile i drop when my pinky toe hits the fridge. Bruh

Hats off to the insane skill and dedication of the announcer for really disguising those results. The guy really is demonstrating next level technique with his reveal delay and just how much of a cagey veteran you need to be to last a long time in this sport.
I never saw it coming. His skill was too good.
If I was Wang, I'd wait for him in the parking lot, all sneaky like.
massively agreed he doesn't get enough credit
When the guy you’re up against has THREE HUNDRED wins over you, it’s like staring at a mountain you have to climb. Wang never once let up, even though he was outmatched he gave his all during every second. That’s more than could be said for plenty of fighters.
Says who there's a point where having more fights doesn't make you better and that's like at 50
@@comosediceesoo681 bro what that doesn’t even make sense
@@kaowashington6635 no not to you
@@comosediceesoo681 no it just doesn’t make sense in general knowledge is endless you can learn something from every opponent you have no reasoning behind that statement
@@kaowashington6635 let me explain: humans are fragile there's a point where your longevity is compromised not only that but you Dont just get stronger with every fight this is not anime,by your logic the most experienced of fighters would be the best and younger fresher fighters wouldn't stand a chance. that is a young fighter with 10 fights can beat a veteran.
Standing there with 24 wins across from an opponent with 364 wins while the announcer is introducing you had gotta be an intense moment
I don’t know if he spoke English lol
@@cryptoworldpeace2974 I'm sure he was shown the statistics way before the fight
@@pineapplelord2422 Yes they do, Im surprised why people cant think of that.
@@midnightvibes5485 frfr
Where did the other 3 wins go?
The amount of stamina required to do what these two did is insane. To still come at each other hard and fast after being punched and kicked in the chest and ribs that much is extraordinary.
There's only one way to describe Sam's timing : real ultra instinct .
skill*
Sam-A is clearly the smarter/high IQ fighter with much better form, which is why he's lasted so long with the incredible fight record. Wang is just a brute fighter with a solid chin and good cardio...he needs to work on his technique or he won't be around long with that style. If Wang doesn't change, he probably won't remember his own name when he gets older.
Maybe not though cause its not like boxing. obviously with Muay thai or kickboxing the striking is rather diversified. Its really fighter to fighter basis as you know. Some like to punish legs more than punch heads. He might get lucky haha.
I agree. He's gotta temper that aggression. He was like a wild bull against a skilled matador. "Insanity is trying the same thing over and over and expecting a different result"
"he probably won't remember his own name when he gets older"
That would probably be a good thing given his name is Wang ;)
@@williamdavis3590 but Sam a didn't cover his head, what should Wang do?
@@williamdavis3590 this might sound cliche but that quote really got me “insanity is trying the same thing over and over and expecting a different result” opened my eyes lol
Sam-a seasoned fighter with a wealth of experience. The fighter mentality is unquestionable.
Dude really kept the pressure up on dude, constantly moving in... It's just all those God damn spinning backfist attempts had me rooting for Sam-A hardcore... Plus he almost always had counter ready to go.
A couple of those were damn close and if they landed even remotely solid it would've been lights out though.
@@thenson1Halo I doubt it. Both these guys have durable chins.
@@Deoslatt When a proper spinning backfist lands it is going to hit right on the chin or on the button just from the way that they have to be thrown. And if one connects solid it is lights out for damn near anyone. That's what the move is for. It's high risk and high reward. When I was younger I fought in an amateur circuit for a couple of years and spinning backfists were just one of those things. Not generally worrisome because they're USUALLY easy to avoid and leave your opponent wide open, but you had to be constantly aware because if they sneak a good one in when you're not expecting it and it lands then you're going to be in trouble. It's up there with flying knees and superman punches.
6:35 is mint. Take a breather. Outstanding fight but Sam-A is clearly more experienced & the better fighter.
IDK what just happened there
That was super smooth!
Wang is an amazing fighter with the heart of a lion. Sam-A is simply EPIC!
heart of bat soup
@@alfarizi2179 what does that mean?
@@user-om2do9bk2v you know...bat soup...china...bat soup = covid...soo....
really good match to watch, Sam A show better technique and Wang showed really good staminar with aggression, Wang was slightly edged out by Sam A skill, but Wang had many moments where he was doing well, and in the last 30 seconds of the fifth round Wang was dominating with his aggression.
entertaining match from the beginning to end, respect for both fighters.
Did we watch the same fight? Sam-A utterly outfought Wang. I don't think Sam-A was even trying.
@@timontide6404 He was trying. His plan was to corner him but he slipped out or they came too close to eachother.
@@timontide6404 What are you talking about, Sam-A looked exhausted after this fight. He won because he fought better, not because he didn't try.
Watch the fight again Timmy, ask yourself how many strikes from Wang actually landed. Hardly any.
What a fight. Loved Sam A's style. Both fought well and very impressive physical conditioning.
huge respect to fighters... its astonishing to see to what limits can human go, the energy, the movement, hits, receiving the hits and staying on the feet for sooo long, the super fast kicks even after 10min of fighting being exhausted, incredible hardcore sport!
If wang would have landed more shots on sam than himself he could have won.
All joking aside this was an enjoyable fight to watch. Wang brought a lot of energy and sam had such precision in his counters.
Yeah hotel Room 401 washington d.c...lets BANG there
~WTF Are You Talking About - SAM Was Just Shy Of Being Put To SLEEP!
@@KillswitchEngage2010 lol
Wow!!! Some of the best movement, feints, dodges, and countering I've seen!
Both are great fighters, a pleasure just to watch, the speed, the strength, the evasions, the precisions, the athletic looks, the respect for each other in fighting.
Sam-A slipping all those punches like a boss.
He got hit SO many times... wang landed WAY more shots
I liked the kicks for retaliation as he was guarding his head
It is amazing that the Thai fighter was collected and well poised amidst the relentless attacks from the Chinese. Muay Thai boxing at the finest moments. Very good fight.
Sam-a is Chinese?
Sam is amazing in this fight. The Chinese guy was very aggressive intimidating to me considering his record compared to sam's and he played his strategy well but he was not on sam level!
Mad respect for both fighters what a great fight.
Great Match. Thanks for Uploading it
That was a veterans move! He had it he was just classy very calm. Congrats! Fm🇵🇭👍✌️
Onefc putting out some amazing variety of fights! Keep up the awesome work!
Beautiful work by Sam-A in the opening rounds. 👏
Mental note:
_"When you get hit, hit yourself too. They can't knock you out...YOU knock YOU out"_
Entertaining as hell. Even the missed shots, their speed with throwing things and dodging too, is just insane.
Yeah, I'm around 200 (somewhat in shape I like to believe) pounds and those guys look scary as hell
By the time I'd throw a kick or punch I'd probably have taken 3 shots myself 😂
Bro they definitely should run it back. This is one of the best kickboxing fights in awhile
What a damn good match. That announcer tho making it super suspenseful at the end lol.
The announcer making it fecking annoying...... though not as annoying as the Aussie commentator.
I can see Sam A edging this one out. You have to do more than simply charge forward bulldozer style and throw punches. Sam A won the majority of those exchanges with preemptive clean strikes, teep disruptions, counter and slip outs. Won the kicking game easily too. Wang was more aggressive obv but without the results.
For those pointing out Sam A not standing toe to toe, well yeah of course not. That's what his opp wants. Of course Sam A not gonna do that. It's fight IQ. You don't automatically win a kickboxing match because u press fwd more than the other guy, u still have to win the exchanges...Sam A won more of them.
Completely agree. If you're going push forward so hard, make every throw count. 85% were missed strikes or countered. Was surprised Wang didn't just gas himself out
And that's the basic of 3D fighting
You have this 3D plane, don't play it like you only can go left or right lads!
Yup exactly 💯
Simple
People that point that out completely miss the point. The reason Wang charges forward simply is because if the roles are reversed Sam will hit his shots. So he is always is preemptive strike mode. Sam in other hand is fairly comfortable defending Wangs attacks.
Apparently the mic is on the corner guy/coach instead of the announcers. Great fight tho
id take the thai coach yelling over commentary anyday.
Most of Thai fighters by age 30-35 have over 300 fights.
Thai guys start fighting very young and they fight many times a year.
The respect after the results get me in the feels! Way to go warriors!
Wang was more aggressive but landed more shots on himself than sam-a 🤣
A round of this match alone is more intense than any UFC whole 5 rounds, You can clearly hear the hard impact when they trade punches and kicks. Doesnt seems to get tired or slowed down.
This fight is insane. Both of these fighters are on another level
That was a super educational experience for Wang . It will stand him in good stead in future fights
9:06 You can tell Wang was having a bad day and really needed that.
Wang has brutal stamina.his training prep must have been insane.I liked Sam A more but Wang just scored more points thanks to his ferocity.tough to judge this
You’re definitely right that Wang scored more points but if you look at the whole fight especially who was in control and who scored more significant strikes it definitely goes to Sam A. He was just clearly the better fighter better ring IQ and better timing and most of the strokes Wang threw didn’t even hit
I think only casuals say this fight was tough judge. Yea he kept the pressure on him but he barely landed and kept gettin hit. I think he needs to control his temper and work on his head movement.
i saw this go the other way. Sure, Sam-A outmatched him in technique by far; but he was pinned up against the cage by wang the entire fight in defense mode, with wang controlling the cage the whole time as the aggressor. Would love to have seen the sig. strike stats for this fight though...
Sure he showed more aggression but Sam-a exhibit more composure through tout the fight, he also landed the cleaner blows wang did keep him pinned but Sam-a ended up blocking of evading most of his shots until the last half of course but by then Sam-a already racked so much in it was over
Mayweather does that in all his fights, so whats the problem? 😂
Not gonna lie Wang is a bit cocky but he is a fighter he really puts a good fight against someone way more experienced Good job Wang! Good job Sam-A!
I know its easier when your upper body weighs like 40 lbs, but it is still impressive as hell to see Wang matrix-dodging kicks that were already half way towards his head before he started moving.
Two classy fighters, love to watch these guys.
Good close fight. Wang had the aggression, but not a lot of clean hits, most were blocked. Sam A had a lot more clean scoring hits.
Great fight, but Sam A to me was a clearer winner.
If Wang can clean up his shots to be more accurate, he a future World Champ for sure.
the difference between youth and experience summed up in a youtube comment
สามเอถอยมากไปหน่อย แต่สายตาดี
@@user-je9tz8zi7p tried to run that through translate but got gibberish sorry
@@charleysimmons427 it says Sam-a has really good defense but backed up too much.
@@napatt.7943 thx lul. he is definitely right about that sam has major defence but he doesnt utilize it the way he should here and at other times
Smaller guy was more technical and handled bigger guy's forward pressure and aggression well, great fight👍
What fluid trained motion from sam a
Can see him flow seamlessly through all the stances etc just absolutely living breathing the style
I would love to then see Wang fight Sam-A in a real Muay Thai fight. It felt like he had to restrict himself so much.
i feel like wang would have destroyed him if it kept going
Fresh blood vs old wolf, stamina vs technique , experience vs boldness
never seen a fighter get awarded a break every time some one gets in close
Fantastic head movement from Sam...some of the best I've ever seen.
Wow! This is a high quality fight. Imo Wang would have needed one round more to win but who knows. Congrats to both. Well done!
good fight with lots of action, Wang needed to slow his roll down i think as he wasted a lot of shots either missing or by being blocked and aggression isnt scored as highly, Sam A countered well and picked his counters well too with hardly any missed, if the 5th round had been maybe 1 minute longer Wang might have been able to down Sam A as his aggression and stamina was overwhelming but alas was not to be
Wang landed more punches on himself than on his opponent, the ancient Chinese art of Wang beating wang.
I felt like Sam was more disciplined and sharper with his control of punches, kicks, and mentally. From round 2 I felt like he was going to win. He did.
HOWEVER, This could've arguably have been called a draw. Though in my opinion, Wang stayed aggressive which I had thought he would tire himself out with all those wild misses and output of energy from Sam's ability to evade and defend. I WAS INCORRECT! Wang kept that pace til the end! It started to started to take a toll on Sam in the last 2 rounds. While Sam was much more controlled and technically, and emotionally sound than Wang, I gotta give it to Wang. That kids a Lion!
If factoring in each fighters chosen discipline was also to be considered.... Then Sam deserves huge accolades for his outstanding performance! All things considered... Fun fight!
Well done fighters!
What kickboxing prodigy? Sam-A schooled him.
These fighters got crazy stamina
My God, you’d have to fight every 10 days for 10&1/2 years to have that many fights…
Two or three times a month for 10 to 15 years.
thai fighters start around 8 so its not hard for them to rack up hundreds of fights over their career
Respect, wang doing great job even lost and sam calm with soul of best fighter
Cardio for day for this guys, amazing!
they reduced the volume of commentary for us to hear those shots landing, just 😲😳😳
Ngl if you look at their expressions, Sam is very chill like a heavenly figure dancing around with a demon.
What an elegant, classy operator Sam is! Salute to the tekkers (technique).
That was a great fight. Seriously impressive.
Great fight! Really enjoyed that!
What a great match savages both of them 🤘
Great Respekt for this 2 crazy Fighter.but they dont search the Knock Out,they Fight on Time.But insane Powerfull this dudes.
When a fighter keeps throwing back fists in the last round, it's obvious he/she knows that the only way to salvage a victory is a last minute KO.
Wang threw-up his hands at the end to display the customary self-confidence, but he already knew that he had lost the fight (not for the lack of trying, he just kept pushing!).
best and cleanest fight, i have ever seen!
The hands go to the kickboxer, the legs go to the Muay Thai. These guys are assassins.
What a determined set of fighters…experience won
Precision and calmness versus brute force.
The kid was fighting on too much ego. His corner was yelling for him to "Go first" and "Body head body head", he would get off first but that seemed like it was more due to his own eagerness to be "the man". He completely ignored his corner's instruction to throw to the body. Sam-A's experience and class were on full display. His composure and timing were fantastic. Great fight.
Wang lacked hands. He has good pressure and is able to close in on Sam A, but then just to waste it on swinging hooks. No combination boxing and lack of overall technique.
@@jinruizhang I'd agree that Wang had good pace and cardio. His shortcoming isn't so much "lack of hands", his technique is fine, his shots were sharp and strong. His issue was his tempo. Sam-A was able to slip a ton of Wang's shots purely because the tempo and rhythm were predictable. Sam-A isn't a god level Muay Femur like Lerdsila, he's not a fighter who's out there trying to out-slick his opponents. He IS a very experienced nak muay, and has developed an excellent feel for tempo. So if you don't change your patterns he's gonna get a good feel for your shots.
Wang's corner was pretty rubbish. First round (could hear clearly then) they kept telling him the same thing over and over: don't move.
wang was the aggressor the whole entire time
He's the secret boss that appears after the credits of the end of the game 🤣
The younger fighter Wang was simply outclassed by a superbly experienced counter-puncher and technician Sam-A. Give Wang more experience and he will be very hard to withstand.
I gotta hand it to Wang. Hes got a good chin. Despite his best efforts he couldn't even knock himself out. That chin allows him to fight recklessly and for some reason, hit himself a lot too.
Sam was by far the more technical fighter .Great fight from booth !
great fight respect for both of them
Talk about a tenacious fighter
This was like watching a sledgehammer go up against a sniper rifle. The sledgehammer can't smash what it can't hit. Sam-A fought beautifully
such a legend..
Sam-A effective strikes against Wang 102
Wang effective strikes against Wang 103
Many of Wang's punches missed and Sam-A showed the experiences he collected through his early days.
He throws a kick from the back leg like it's a jab! WOW!
amazing. With power like a mule
Haven't watched the fight yet; but when they announced the fight records.... I can predict where this will go but who knows
Wang is future champ, love his fighting spirit.
มวยไทยเก่งกว่าสามเอมีเยอะ
@@user-uy4gk7sw5x I hope thai, Chinese or any other nationality preserve muay thai as the world heritage.
Because it is most effective fighting art ever developed, therfore I foreseen Wang enthusiastic as muay thai fighter, championship belt will belong to him someday for hard working.
Great fight, excellent fighters
this thai guy is a legend
That ring announcer gave a damn monologue. Damn man just say who won
Wang always stepping forward, getting punished, realises he should space, gets good hits in, steps forward....
Man I love this fight. A raging bull vs a surgeon.
Cheers Sam a an amazing warrior best wishes in retirement 👏
Wang was relentless, but wild. With more experience he will be great.
"Golden Boy" my A**...dude fought himself. lol. 💯
I don't understand, clearly Wang wins the game as the other guy was taking all the blows and running around all the time without fighting.
Even by doing that, the guy bacame exhausted in the last round.
Great fight..wow..one of the BEST fights I have seen! The Chinese guy is a beast but the Thai? He is a MONSTER
The announcer was really in love with himself there.
Bruh I like Wang energy so much.
