Yokkao 14 and Yokkao 15 Results: Saenchai and Singdam Win

Yokkao 14 and Yokkao 15 took place this past weekend in Bolton, England. The events ran consecutively at Macron Stadium.

Saenchai was originally scheduled to face Greg Wootton in the main event of Yokkao 14, but an injury forced Wootton to withdraw from the bout. Massaro Glunder stepped in last minute and showed a valiant effort against the legend, but in the end came up short. In typical Saenchai fashion he was able to be the more accurate and effective striker which earned him a decision.

The co-main event featured Reece McAllister vs. Josh Turbill. The Glory veteran was on point in his bout and scored a (T)KO win over Turbill in the first round.

The Yokkao 15 main event featured the UK's Liam Harrison vs. Singdam Kiatmoo9. The fight went the distance and despite a worthy effort by Harrison he came up short on the judges score cards. The fight was awarded to Singdam who ends a four fight losing streak with the win.

In other action at Yokkao 15 Jordan Watson and Christopher Shaw both picked up wins. Watson won a decision over Jordan Piker, and Christopher Shaw won a decision over Karim Bennoui.
