Former eight-time ONE world champion Nong-O Hama climbed back into the win column with an impressive performance against rising Thai contender Kongthoranee in the headliner in Bangkok.
After a much more timid approach in their first meeting, came out looking to make a statement in the rematch, lighting up Kongthoranee’s legs with a bevy of brutal calf kicks.
The first round clearly belonged to Nong-O, but Kongthoranee was far from out of the fight.
Ramping up the aggression in the second stanza, Kongthoranee landed a left followed by a booming right hand that had Nong-O on the ropes.
