Today at CTN

Song Saruth v Bheut Bunthoeun and Van Chanvey v Nuon Mony in the lightweight tournament. Including today’s card, there are just two weeks left in the round robin tournament. The top four finishers will advance to the semifinals. At the moment, the current top 4 are:

  • Kao Roomchang (6-0, 2 KOs)
  • Van Chanvey (5-1, 4 KOs)
  • Long Sophy (5-1, 1 KO)
  • Vung Noy (3-3, 2 KOs)

Kao Roomchang v Long Sophy happens next Sunday and could shuffle up the rankings. If Long Sophy wins, Van Chanvey will jump into first place, with Kao Roomchang, Long Sophy and Vung Noy behind him. Should Sophy KO Roomchang — a virtual impossibility, however — that would force a second place tie. I am not sure what happens in that case. But, the odds are on Kao Roomchang outpointing Long Sophy to maintain first place and his undefeated tournament record. Assuming that, the semifinal matchups look like this:

  • Kao Roomchang v Vung Noi
  • Van Chanvey v Long Sophy

Roomchang and Sophy are the favorites, although Van Chanvey has upset Long Sophy before. A Van Chanvey Kao Roomchang rematch for first place would be off the charts. Stay tuned.
