In club news Seung Panya fought in a four-man tournament Saturday Nov 1, 2008, at CTN. He was eliminated in the first round, KO’d in the fourth. Bummer.

The main event on Saturday was Em Vutha vs Van Chanwait. These two fought for the 57kg title in The Nationals just a couple of weeks ago. Chanvait put up a better fight on Saturday than he did in The Nationals, and as a result he didn’t get knocked out — but still lost on points.

In 60kg tournament news, Long Sophy beat Phun Sophorn on points. Heng Samrang was scheduled to fight Em Samnang but for reasons unknown the fight didn’t happen.

On Sunday Nov 2, Chan Ratana and Seung Kangsan fought a rematch at TV Bayon. Same result as the first: Ratana won on points.

There is talk of Apsara TV getting into the fight game come January, bringing the total number of weekly sponsors of boxing to four. Nice.
