Both great fighters!they are very different, but champions in their styles. Petrosyan is ITALIAN-ARMENIAN. He fights for Italy and I'm glad of this FORZA PETROSYAN!
chhaylemm, you are absolutely right when you say that a fighter should mostly fight at his limit inorder to explore and push his limits - I too dont see Buakaw doing this. All this excuses by others about jet lag and travelling more the petrosyan sounds like excuses. I hope buakaw is just fooling around because Im a big fan of his and hope he takes the Max title in a few days!!
Buakaw is actually pretty damn double legged, so he strikes just fine with his right leg. The reason he isnt using his left leg is because Petrosyan is a Southpaw.
It was broadcasted, but I haven`t been able to get my hands on it unfortunately. This is not filmed by a cellphone, it`s filmed with a dv camera and I was standing quite far away. I`d also like to have a better version of this fight so if I manage to get one I`ll change it.
I think what you guys mean by his lack of "winning spirit," is his killer instinct? To me it seems lately, that the fights that buakaw does doesn't interest me that much. It seems that he doesn't go after the fighters like he used to. But I would understand if he has injuries or what not. But hey, you never know.
Buakaw won this fight,it shouldn't have been a draw. However this was 3 years ago, and petrosyan was only 21 and just a kid during this fight and was inexperienced. Petro had been fighting only mid level Europeans and then was given this fight and his inexperience against top level competition showed. However now,petro would beat buakaw.Petro has improved tremendously in the 3 years since this fight,and looks unbeatable. Now petro is completely experienced vs top competition would beat buakaw
also dont forget the K1 bosses started to limit buakaw this year.. after what he done to the K1 fighters in 2006 with his clinch throws..knees & low kicks.... K1 bosses are already playing games with petro.. saying they didnt want petro to win K1 this year.. said he was boring,, and didnt fight within the K1 rules.. so it wont be long before there f**king petro over same as they have done with buakaw... maybe the bosses got a big betting scam on fights.. or dont want masato record bettered
GIORGIO weakness he cannot take low leg kicks.. nonthanan por pramuk.. hi lighted this.. in there fight... buakaw tested it in this fight..buakaw didnt go all out in this fight.. didnt want to pick up any damage for the later fights in K1.. if they meet again in K1 final 8 you see buakaw low kick him untill he cannot stand... be a good fight
buakaw won this fight. I think ur wrong. buakaw would kill petro in this day and age. Like buakaw got ripped in his fight with andy 2009 so petro wouldn't have to fight him. It's all fixed now anyway. I think buakaw is the best pound for pound thai fighter there is.
@moneyshot76 Lol he barely beat a 21 year old in his FAVORITE ruleset ( FTR)... It was an embarrassing performance and even the announcers were critical of it...He barely beat a 21 year old in FTR...That is rather embarrassing considering he was in the prime of his career.
wake up and smell the balm...buakaw's K-1 run is done...K-1 made sure that after 2004 & 2006 he wouldnt get any more titles. Petrosyan's style is more K-1 friendly
so stupid that from this great fight there are only cellphone releases on youtube. wasnt this broadcasted?
Still thanks for the upload, i enjoyed it
@fedbymum thanks a lot for posting this great fight. both fighters do not deserve to lose here, so a draw is justified.
Both great fighters!they are very different, but champions in their styles.
Petrosyan is ITALIAN-ARMENIAN. He fights for Italy and I'm glad of this
FORZA PETROSYAN!
@fedbymum thanks,you did a good job already.anyways, who do you think win?

Grande Petrosian...l'orgogoglio dello sport italiano, altro ke sti pelandroni miliardari di calciatori...continua così!!!
Agreed.
I was just about to wright the same thing.
@kingstaffy Hmm so when was buakaws prime? he still seems very it and strong to me. what is he like... 25.
Quite close, but Buakaw did have an edge. He landed more clean shots and threw a little more combinations.
Buakaw is actually pretty damn double legged, so he strikes just fine with his right leg.
The reason he isnt using his left leg is because Petrosyan is a Southpaw.
This isn't buakaw.. is Unrecognizable!!!!
:O

Great fight, it is clear that Ptrsian weaker than Buakaw both on skills and strength.
I think what you guys mean by his lack of "winning spirit," is his killer instinct? To me it seems lately, that the fights that buakaw does doesn't interest me that much. It seems that he doesn't go after the fighters like he used to. But I would understand if he has injuries or what not. But hey, you never know.
C'è poco da fare ramonn dekkers..solo lui è stato in grado di battere i tailandesi..in tailandia..con le loro regole...semplicemente il migliore
And it doesn't even say Buakaw on Buakaw's shorts. Lay low on the pipe mate

It is a Muay Thai fight! But you`re not allowed to use elbows in sweden.
Buakaw is teaching....!!!!
Yes it was.
Elbows aren`t allowed in Sweden unfortunately.
petrosyans style is more K-1 friendly than buakaw, full muay thai rules would be a different story
Hmm... Buakaw and Petrosian could hardly fine any "openings" on each other... no wonder it seemed slower than usual O.o
buakaw
intanto DEKKER!!!! e poi vorrei ricordarti che l'ha fatto anche GIORGIO....HA BATTUTO THAILANDESI IN THAILANDIA CON LE LORO REGOLE.....IL MIGLIORE.
also dont forget the K1 bosses started to limit buakaw this year.. after what he done to the K1 fighters in 2006 with his clinch throws..knees & low kicks....

@kingstaffy I don't think he would beat him "easy".But with Elbows I also think Buakaw won.
aspettate che demolisca Andy Souwer e poi ci risentiamo
@oldweng Yea when he was 21 year old...Good luck with that nowadays buakaw
Petrosian does good and buakaw does bad in this fight, but buakaw still wins.. this is no draw
Buakaw seemed a bit slow and non aggressive.
Buakaw only gave 55% on this fight, and the result was a draw...
Buakaw is teaching....!!!!
Petro.... use the music and develop some courage!
GIORGIO weakness he cannot take low leg kicks.. nonthanan por pramuk.. hi lighted this.. in there fight... buakaw tested it in this fight..buakaw didnt go all out in this fight.. didnt want to pick up any damage for the later fights in K1.. if they meet again in K1 final 8 you see buakaw low kick him untill he cannot stand... be a good fight
i think 1,2,3 to buakaw 4 a draw
nah it was a draw, Buakaw won rounds 1& 2 & 4 was a draw, petrosyan won round 3 & 5, judges made a good call
Too much hugging and not enought fighting from petrosyan...How he won..I don't know...
Buakaw is a great fighter but his chin isnt what it used to be. Petrosyan or Kyshenko will win the it this year.
Buakaw is teaching....!!!!
Petro.... use the music!
How the hell did they score Buakaw lower? Buakaw has been cheated so many times. Fucked up.
i love Buakaw , and Petrosyan'style dont make me indifferent...but this fight....ZZZzzzzZZZzzz...very slow
Buakaw stance is much better
Buakauw is my favorite fighter but he did not win this one, stupid judges.
buakaw won this fight. I think ur wrong. buakaw would kill petro in this day and age. Like buakaw got ripped in his fight with andy 2009 so petro wouldn't have to fight him. It's all fixed now anyway. I think buakaw is the best pound for pound thai fighter there is.

Petrosyan is getting man handled..Too many stolen fights from buakaw..
wake up and smell the balm...buakaw's K-1 run is done...K-1 made sure that after 2004 & 2006 he wouldnt get any more titles. Petrosyan's style is more K-1 friendly
I personally think that Buakaw was slightly better , but he is also my favourite fighter.
you're not in the top 5 BUAKAW IS KING!
@dbz86019 baukaw won this match even tho they gave it a draw. Baukaw in his prime would beat petrosyan easy
