In the semi -finals of the Championship Muay Nationwide 2024, Luong Thanh Phuc boxer (Ho Chi Minh City) encountered Nguyen Quang Huy (Hanoi) in the weight of 60kg men. This is an interesting match, because both are the prominent face of Muay Vietnam. They also had the previous international competition.
This match is the competition at the domestic playground of two Vietnamese boxers who attended One Championship. Nguyen Quang Huy played in a opening match of the Road to One event in Thailand in late 2022. It was the time when he had just won the gold medal of 31 SEA Games Kickboxing.
Meanwhile, Luong Thanh Phuc played at One Lumpinee 16 event in May 2023. Initially, Luong Thanh Phuc was arranged by the organizers of a Thai fighter. But not long after that, this boxer was forced to withdraw and could not play. They replaced the Thai athlete with Temirlan Bekmurzaev, a Russian boxer that was rated very strongly.
The last victory in the match between Luong Thanh Phuc and Nguyen Quang Huy belonged to the boxer of the Muay Kickboxing Hanoi team. This is a reasonable result, because Quang Huy is more appreciated for his qualifications and competition experience. Quang Huy then also won the gold medal of 60kg male.
In recent times, Vietnam has witnessed a number of fighters attending the One Championship events. However, except for Nguyen Tran Duy Nhat, Vietnamese representatives can only participate in small events, and play from the tournament.
