American Muay Thai standout Kevin Ross will not be fighting against Choke Eminent Air at Central World in Bangkok on March 16th. The event which will take place as part of Suk Wan Muaythai Naikhanomtom (National Muay Thai Day) was set to feature a bout between Ross and Choke, but a knee injury sustained during training has forced Ross to withdraw from the bout. It is unclear if a replacement for Ross will be sought after or if the bout will be scrapped completely. 

The fight would have been the first for Ross in 2012. If the fight would have gone through it would have been the third consecutive highly ranked Thai fighter that Ross would have faced in the last six months.
