Back in 2013 there was a Thai destroying everyone he seemed to get in the ring with. Srisaket Sor Rungvisai. The Thai was the then WBC Super Flyweight champion who was mowing through opponents, of various levels, in double quick fashion. Heavy handed, aggressive and tough Srisaket was becoming a real force to be reckoned with. Despite being incredibly active Srisaket only managed 1 defence of his world title. An amazing stat when you consider he fought 8 times whilst in possession of the world title. That one defence came against Japan's Hirofumi Mukai, a talented though very light hitting fighter who had previously fought a 1 round technical draw with Pongsaklek Wonjongkam. This bout, like the Wonjongkam one saw Mukai going over to Thailand though unfortunately it was another painful visit for Mukai who showed his bravery and toughness though was bludgeon by Srisaket until the corner eventually threw in the towel to save Mukai from what could have been a career altering beating. Following this fight Srisakat took part in a non-title bout, stopping Joel Kwong before sadly losing his world title to Carlos Cuadras.
