The 28th MMA Lion Championship witnessed a series of intense matches and ended with an overwhelming victory from many fighters.
In the opening match, boxer Nguyen Thanh Thoan showed outstanding performance against Huynh Ngoc Tin. Right in the first half, Thanh Thoan continuously launched strong and accurate punches, causing the opponent to sway and not have time to react.
After 4 minutes and 30 seconds, the referee was forced to stop the match and recognize Thanh Thoan's knockout victory.
Following his teammates, Do Phuc Hau won impressively in the 65 kg weight class. Although opponent Pham Anh Duc started well with the ability to propose, he soon ran out of steam in the second half.
Phuc Hau took advantage of the opportunity, controlled the game and continuously launched dangerous punches into the sidelines, forcing the referee to intervene to protect Anh Duc.
In the 60 kg weight class, Le Minh Hoang also only took less than 2 minutes to decide the match against Dinh Chi Cong. In the situation of a ground battle, Minh Hoang completely dominated, continuously hitting the opponent, making it impossible to resist and the referee declared the match to stop.
One of the most notable international matches was the confrontation between Chayut Rojanakat (Thailand) and Gleb Orcharov (Russia). Both of them gave 3 dramatic rounds, but the Russian fighter had difficulty when he could not compete against the opponent.
Meanwhile, Chayut took advantage of his strength in boxing ability, continuously launching accurate low kicks, causing Orcharov to suffer pain and apparently lose strength in the third half. As a result, the Thai boxer convincingly won by knockout.
The MMA Duo match between YunNan LiJunLong Fight Club and C88 Martial Arts F&Y Center ended in a draw after 10 minutes of a thrilling wait. This is the first time this format has had to extend the entire competition period.
The pair Nguyen Nguyen Nguyen Chuong - Shama Yige (Sa Ma Di Cach) continuously created a tense match, while Claudio Cautinho repeatedly turned his back on Shen Long (Tham Long) but still could not end it due to strong resistance.
Closing the competition night was the highlight match between former champion of Than Vo Viet Nam - Ha The Anh and Chinese fighter La Chau (Zhou Luo).
The Anh started quite well with the clearing of the pillars, making it difficult for La Chau to approach. After a high kick from the opponent, the advantage seemed to be leaning towards the Vietnamese fighter. However, La Chau quickly counterattacked with an accurate footrest, putting Ha The Anh in a position to hold him tight.
In just one moment, the Chinese fighter rushed out behind, took the back position and quickly fired a back neck saw. That lightning-fast submission ended the match, bringing victory to La Chau in the first half.
