The victory over Dang Van Quy in Lion Championship 6 could not help Pham Ba Hoi climb on the 56kg weight ranking rankings. It was the match that Ba Hoi was urgently added when Phan Thanh Tung suddenly suffered an injury. Even so, he still had a good performance when he defeated Dang Van Quy in the third half, thereby preserving the 6th place.
Pham Ba Hoi's opponent in the next match at Lion Championship 8 is Tran Trong Kim, a boxer of Phu Quoc PFC Club. Trong Kim used to stand before the opportunity to have a 56kg weight championship match. However, that opportunity was slipped from his hand when Trong Kim lost to Dinh Van Huong, thereby losing the opportunity to enter the opponent.
Pham Ba Hoi was born in 1995, is one of the leading boxers of Kickboxing Vietnam. He won the 2019 SEA Games gold medal, and had many years of winning the national championship. When Lion Championship took place, Ba Hoi was one of the first fighters to register to play. He reached the quarterfinals in the first season.
In the MMA Vietnam arena, Ba Hoi quickly showed the level of a top boxer. However, the skill set of Ba Hoi still lacks balance. He was very strong in striking attacks (punches, kicking, pillows, pillows), but often had difficulties in front of competitors to play close and favored objects.
The upcoming match against Tran Trong Kim is an opportunity for Ba Hoi to verify the strength against one of the top fighters in the tournament. If Ba Hoi could improve the lock skills, he would become a great counterweight on the journey of the Lion Championship championship in the future.
