Mahyar Monshipour vs. Somsak Sithchatchawal

---

Long-time WBA super bantamweight champ Monshipour finally met his match in Sithchatchawal, eventually succumbing in the tenth round of a great fight that may have taken the best out of both men. Monshipour immediately retired at 30, and Sithchatchawal was champ for only one defense, getting KO'ed early by Celestino Caballero in his very next outing. 2006 BWAA Fight of the Year 2006 Ring Magazine Fight of the Year 2006 ESPN Fight of the Year
