Sok Thy, 22, of Cambodia finally earned his first victory in ONE Super Series after three consecutive losses in ONE Championship’s striking-only league. The Cambodian martial artist was one of the winners at “ONE: A New Breed” in Bangkok, Thailand.

Featuring three mixed martial arts and four Muay Thai fights, “ONE: A New Breed” took place in Bangkok on August 28, 2020. In the second bout of the evening, Thy fought Huang Ding, 22, of China in a Muay Thai bout in the flyweight division.

Thy was aggressive to start the contest, attacking with a good mix of kicks and boxing combinations. A right hook to the sternum hurt Huang, causing a delayed reaction as the Chinese athlete crumpled to the ground.

Huang failed to beat the count and Thy was awarded the stoppage victory. Here are the details:
