During the MMA Cup of Vietnam Cup 2021 took place on December 19, MMA Thai Nguyen Club had two female boxers participating in the competition, Nguyen Vu Quynh Hoa and Duong Thi Thanh Binh.
Both are boxers specializing in Kickboxing and Muay Thai, but it is surprising that both of them won MMA victories in the first time to try even though the preparation time was less than 1 week.
The female boxer Quynh Hoa surprised the audience when he won in the first half with Armbar. But surely everyone will be more surprised when she is a player specializing in Muay Thai and does not have much time to practice battle.
Sharing with Thethao.vn, the female boxer Quynh Hoa said: “I myself feel quite surprised to win this victory. I don't think I can win with Submission.”
“As soon as I returned to the National Kickboxing (ending on 10/12), I had to rush into training immediately for this match. I myself were a Muay Thai fighter, when I was practicing to play MMA, I found it quite difficult because this subject requires more struggles about tight locking.
And the female boxer Duong Thi Thanh Binh is not much better than his teammate, who has just practiced Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) in a few short days, had to play MMA.
“I am very happy to win the first time I played MMA. I was really not very satisfied with the last match because there were many shortcomings in the competition. Partly because I just practiced Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for 4-5 days, I had to play,” Thanh Binh said.
Although he did not win by tightening like a teammate, Thanh Binh had a victory TKO with a series of Ground and Pound punching. This is also a situation that makes the most clear difference of MMA from other antagonistic sports.
Quynh Hoa and Thanh Binh are the two most obvious evidence for fighters to stand like Kickboxing and Muay Thai can participate in MMA martial arts floors if they are hard to learn about objects – tight locks like BJJ or Wrestling.
