The match between Vietnamese and Chinese fighters at MMA LION Championship 24 became the focus when both sides continuously sent challenges before the match.

The mixed martial arts (MMA) event LION Championship 24 (LC24) continues to be held at Tay Ho Gymnasium (Hanoi).

In the mixed martial arts (MMA Duo) format, the highlight is the competition between two Vietnamese fighters, Ha The Anh - Nguyen Thanh Thoan, and the Chinese duo, Truong Yen Long - Gia Dien Tan.

Ahead of the event, the two Chinese fighters attracted attention when filming a clip challenging their opponents. In the video, Yen Long and Dien Tan announced that they would make The Anh and Thanh Thoan lie on the floor in pain. The Chinese martial artist duo are even confident in their ability to win and announced that the upcoming match will be the last match of the two Vietnamese martial artists.

In response to the opponent's declaration of war, Vietnamese boxer Ha The Anh responded: "We will teach them a life-long lesson". The battle between the two teams has made the event hotter than ever.

The Anh and Thanh Thoan have affirmed their position in domestic kick-boxing arenas and accumulated experience on the MMA stage.

Meanwhile, Truong Yen Long and Gia Dien Tan are two young fighters who have accumulated many years of experience on the stages of muay Thai, kick-boxing and MMA with more than 30 stage trips. Both promised to bring an explosive, "hot" confrontation even before stepping onto the ring.

In the remaining two MMA Duo matches, representatives Le Van Vu - Vo Minh Nghia and Phan Huy Hoang - Do Nguyen Minh Quyen will face fighters from Cambodia. Representatives of Roem Kakada - Sot Seyha and Sry Sran - Khan Tit are unknowns from the Kun Khmer arenas - the fierce traditional martial arts of the land of Angkor Wat.

Along with the parallel matches, LION Championship also brings professional MMA matches. Jewelry master Pham Anh Duc will return to the LC24 stage with a match against the Scotch boxer Harry John Smith.

With the strengths of thumbs and tightening techniques, both promises to bring breathtaking fights to compete for positions in the 65kg weight class.
