Tran Minh Nhut, after falling from 65kg to play in 60kg class this season, had a very excellent opening match. At the event of LC05, Minh Nhut won TKO against Nguyen Trung Hai. The boxer from Lien Phong did not allow Trung Hai to show too much in the two rounds. The boxer born in 1989 owns a fairly comprehensive fighting style in both Striking and Grappling.
Tran Ngoc Luong, after a controversial victory against Robson Oliveira, also played relatively well when he was promoted to A. The Jiujitsu champion was overwhelmed by the Toan Toan and won the opponent submission with Rear Nake Choke. Ngoc Luong expressed his determination to prove himself as well as the challenge of the championship of the 'Lonely Bridge' Nguyen Tran Duy Nhat when he continued to play at the 3rd consecutive event. If you win against Tran Minh Nhut in the next match, Ngoc Luong is likely to enter the top 5 and get closer to the battle.
