More to come as more of this week's schedule is revealed.

A few things from Sunday that I'd like to mention: Seeoui and Lookman Fonjaengchonburi received their awards for Channel 7 2012 Fight of the Year. Channel 7 Fighter of the Year went to Kataphet Sor Suradej, the current Channel 7 112lbs champion.

Obviously the big show this week is on Tuesday at Lumpini Stadium with some huge match-ups. Thong Puid9d vs. Phetmorakot Wor Sungprapai in the main event is at 122lbs. Thong has had a solid run as of late, in addition to just having been around for a long time and staying quite consistent. Superlek and Mondam are two of Muay Thai's most dynamic young fighters, and yet they're still top fighters. They're rematching from November 2, which saw Superlek win at 116lbs. At 112 lbs is another big fight between Wanchana and Fahsithong. Wanchana was able to get a big victory over Wanchai in December, to rebound from a stoppage loss to Ruangsak Sitniwat in November. Wanchana has been gradually moving up in weight so this should be interesting to see how he does at 112.
