Damien Trainor vs Rungravee Sasiprapa: Doncaster Dome 2011

Damien Trainor vs Rungravee Sasiprapa
9th April 2011 at the Doncaster Dome

Here’s my fight with the Thai terminator Rungravee Sasiprapa. I fought Rungravee back in 2011 and I was the first western fighter under 60kg to go the distance with him. The only other fighter at the time was Yetkin Ozkul and I believe that bout was at 62kg, everyone else he destroyed with ease. Everyone expected the same thing to happen to me, especially with him not making the agreed weight. I came in at 55kg (121Ibs) while he came in at 57kg (125Ibs). At the of the bout I walked back to my corner and my trainer Steve Logan told me to look around the arena. As I looked I could see literally the whole auditorium standing on their feet applauding us. Even to this day this is something I've never seen before and it's a memory from my career that I'll treasure.

Hope you enjoy the fight
