Myanmar’s MMA icon Aung La N Sang (Burmese Python) defeated Brazilian fighter Galvao in under 90 seconds in a catchweight challenge of the ONE Championship event named ONE FIGHT NIGHT 6 which held at Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand today.
Aung La N Sang was originally set to face Chinese fighter Fang Rong in a middle weight MMA bout on this card, but his opponent changed and he fought Galvao.
Galvao who defeated Japanese fighter Yushin Okami in 2022 vowed to beat Aung La N Sang in two minutes of final round for 2022. But Galvao was defeated by Aung La N Sang in 90 seconds at the start of first round.
It didn’t take much for N Sang to get the close the show. Galvao was aggressive early as he swung wide hooks, but N Sang connected with a sneaky uppercut that sent him to the canvas. N Sang allowed Galvao to return to his feet, and a moment later the fight moved to a clinch
against the fence. N Sang defended a takedown attempt well, and dropped Galvao to the mat once again.
The end was near, as N Sang rained down heavy punches until referee Herb Dean called a stop to the fight.
After the tournament, in his words of thanks, Aung La N Sang said that achieving peace in Myanmar is important and all have to make efforts to achieve peace.
