This is also the first time Thanh Le defended his championship after the victory before Martin Nguyen in October 2020. Up to this point, it has been more than 1 year this Vietnamese -original puncher is absent on the stage.
It is still unclear how his style is like after a long time of being forced to hang gloves because of the pandemic. However, many people believe that the battle of this belt will be very difficult for Thanh Le, because he will have to face Garry Tonon known as one of the BJJ boxers in the world.
Tonon has repeatedly ascended the throne in the prestigious narrative tournaments such as IBJJF, IBJJF World No-Gi … This boxer began to switch to MMA competition in 2018 in the One Championship. He quickly got acquainted with this new floor with 6 consecutive victories, including 3 matches with locking and 2 matches with TKO.
Because Gary Tonon was very dangerous on the battlefield, Thanh Le had to go to the BJj Ryan Hall champion and went to Jackson Wink MMA to practice to prepare for this match.
