BANGKOK, Thailand   –   Sajad Mehrabi of Iran, Zixin Zhang of China and Jirakrit Jarurattanachai of Thailand were the biggest winners for the exciting boxing show staged Sunday, August 4, at the popular Highland Boxing Gym in Bangkok, Kingdom of Thailand.

In the quick and thrilling main event, 168-pounder Sajad Mehrabi (5-3-2, 4 KO’s) of Hamedan, Iran, stopped with a succession of lethal body shots big boy Shanhanat Seenoul of Thailand.   Official time was 2:19 in frame one.

Coming from a hard-fought draw last May in China, this time the rugged Sajad Mehrabi emerged from battle victorious.

In another Super Middleweight rumble, 15-year-old rookie Chinese boxer Zixin Zhang (1-0, 1 KO) stepped with success into pro boxing by stopping the far more-experienced Wutthisak Padthum.

Then, in minimum weights, undefeated 23-year-old Jirakrit Jarurattanachai (4-0, 4 KO’s) of Bangkok stopped 20-year-old whirlwind Natthawut Samang.

The two fighters came at each other blazing swords with Natthawut, landing the bigger shots in the early going, inflicting more damage.

That was till Jirakrit mounted an effective counter attack to his foe’s mid-section, rocking him down to the canvas from where he count not getting up, getting the full 10 seconds count.

This was Jirakrit’s fourth win.   He scored two victories in 2023, and this year he has already bagged another two, wanting even more action RUMBLES!
