Scores were unanimous 117-111 (twice and 118-110 for Panya willing to reaffirm why he is the world’s #1 strawweight in the Planet according to Boxrec.com.
From the onset of actions the more confident and aggressive Panya stalked his opponent, landing on him continuously and solidly with combinations, but the challenger Danai boxed his way out of trouble, rocking Panya hard and clean during a hot exchange in seventh round. Some fans thought that the WBC crown was changing heads, but no because Panya managed to survive, dishing out damaging hands of his own.
