Mongkolpetch Nabs Victory Over Elias Mahmoudi In ONE: FULL BLAST II Main Event
It was a back-and-forth battle in the main event of ONE: FULL BLAST II on Friday, 11 June, but in the end, Mongkolpetch Petchyindee Academy got two of the three judges’ nods to score a majority decision win over #4-ranked flyweight Muay Thai contender Elias “The Sniper” Mahmoudi.
The ONE Super Series Muay Thai bout started off with both men exchanging low kicks, but Mongkolpetch’s were much more effective, as he tore into the fleshy thigh of Mahmoudi and racked up early damage on the French-Algerian.
In round two, the Thai picked up the pace and scored an eight-count on Mahmoudi. The knockdown came after “The Sniper” went for a knee-punch combination and got caught with a starching right hand.
From then on out, Mongkolpetch stayed in control – both on the outside with strikes and on the inside of the clinch – to keep his ONE Super Series record blemish-free at 4-0.
The victory likely helped him enter the top-five rankings and got him closer to ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Champion Rodtang “The Iron Man” Jitmuangnon.
In the co-main event of ONE: FULL BLAST II, lightweight Amarsanaa “Spear” Tsogookhuu used his superior striking to earn a unanimous decision win over organizational newcomer Ben Wilhelm, who picked up the first loss of his mixed martial arts career.
The debuting American handled Tsogookhuu’s striking skills early on, but the Mongolian’s punches and kicks racked up the points needed to earn the victory.
