Lewkowicz, advisosr of WBA featherweight "super" champion Chris "The
Dragon" John (48-0-2, 22 KOs) sends his warmest congratulations to his
fighter for making his 17th successful title defense on Friday night in
Singapore.
Fighting
on Mahkota Promotions' card at the Marina Bay Sands and live on
Australia FOX, John outclassed previously undefeated Chonlatarn
Piriyapinyo (44-1, 27 KOs) by unanimous (117-111, 119-109 and 119-109)
decision.
33-year-old

was his sixth defense of his "Super" title. In his illustrious career,
John has beaten fellow future hall of famer Juan Manuel Marquez and
notable top contender Rocky Juarez.
John
dominated most of the action. Piriyapinyo had some good moments in
rounds seven and eight, but John took back over after that.
"Chris
John is a force of nature. A fighter for the history books," said
Lewkowicz. "He is 33 and still dominating fighters who come in at 44-0. I
am honored to be working with him and I send him my warmest regards for
his outstanding performance."
