Wazzup Pilipinas!
Although Geje “Gravity” Eustaquio already knew that he was on the verge of having his hand raised in triumph, the Filipino fighter was expecting a different result on the judges’ scorecards.
Eustaquio, who edged out Thai rival Anatpong “Mak” Bunrad on the undercard of ONE: DYNASTY OF HEROES in Singapore on Friday, May 26 via split verdict, thought that he did enough to get a unanimous decision from the three officials at cageside.
“I was surprised with the three judges’ decision. I was expecting a unanimous decision win against my opponent. But I am good with it. I respect it,” he said.
The 28-year-old native of Baguio City, Benguet felt that he started to dictate the pace of the three-round flyweight rematch in the second stanza, displaying superb footwork and frustrating the physically stronger Thai combatant with crisp counterpunches.
“Rounds Two and Three, I knew it’s all mine because I was landing my strikes. I was consistent with that. My work rate was much better this time around as well,” he stated.
Eustaquio bucked a slow start in the opening round when the rangy Bunrad came out strong in an effort to intimidate the Team Lakay representative.
