In the framework of the One Championship event on September 24, Martin Nguyen was measured by Kim Jae-woong puncher in the first half. This failure caused Martin to lose the chance to rematch with fellow fellow fighters Thanh Le.
This is a shocking result for fans, but for the Featherweight champion – Thanh Le is the opposite.
In an interview on the SCMP MMA channel, Thanh Le said:
“Actually, I am not surprised with this result. This match has made me curious from the beginning. Because Kim is a martial artist with a huge blow. Martin is capable of high defense. Like the time of fighting me, despite being attacked in a row, it is difficult to defeat Martin quickly.
“However, although not hitting, the shock of the attack still has a part. Thanh Le added.
After the victory over Martin Nguyen, Kim Jae-woong became the leading candidate for the stretching of the belt. Thanh Le himself also hopes to have the opportunity to fight this boxer:
“I can see Kim is a very strong and dangerous boxer. He entered the floor with a very confident manner.
