Samy Sana is a tall and powerful fighter. He before this fight beat Chike Lindsay. Yodsaenklai looked so much smaller in there with him. But, Yodsaenklai is fighting at an entirely different level right now. His weapons are basic, powerful, and deadly accurate. Sana came out repeatedly trying to catch Yod's left kicks. He ended up absorbing every weapon from Yod including a powerful elbow that cut Sana up near his eye.
