Thailand's promising Thong Sithluangphophun made the third defence of his PABA Featherweight title and scored his 5th straight stoppage when he stopped Indonesia's Yakobus Heluka in 3 rounds. Thong, one of the Thai's that we suggested keeping an eye on in one of our recent articles, didn't look at his best here but never looked like he was even close to breaking sweat as he slowly broke down his Indonesian foe. It was clear that the Thai was fighting well within himself but it would still have been nice to see a little more from such a talented and promising young fighter who really does have so much more in his locker than he showed here. As for Heluka he really is limited and it seems like with his lack of power he is always going to be viewed as a "safe" opponent for promising youngsters. He'll keep busy with fights like this though we do need to question just how many concussions he wants before he retires.
