The MMA Lion Championship 24 event took place at Tay Ho Stadium (Hanoi) witnessed one of the most noticeable matches in the tournament, when Chinese boxers “nape soon” had to receive a bitter ending to the ring.
In the match that took place on the evening of July 12, the couple of Vietnamese boxers Nguyen Thanh Thoan – Ha The Anh won convincingly against two opponents from China, Truong Yen Long – Jia Dien Tan, after the controversial “battle” before the match.
During the first balance on July 11, the atmosphere was “hot” when the Chinese fake frequency wore a medical mask on stage. Ha The Anh boxer immediately snatched and threw the opponent's mask, causing the two sides to almost rushed into the scuffle, forcing the referee and the members of the organizers to intervene.
Earlier, boxer Truong Yen Long also confidently stated: “I do not usually study the opponent, but when watching a paragraph of their competition, it must be turned off immediately, because it is too weak.”
The match takes place in the form of the format “MMA Double ”(2 match 2), a rare form, where boxers can take turns to play flexibly. From the beginning, two Vietnamese boxers have actively overwhelmed, constantly attacking strongly. After only 1 minute 41 seconds, Thanh Thoan made Truong Yen Long lie on the floor for the first time.
After that, two Vietnamese boxers continued to coordinate to lower the fake Qin, who was locked by him. The two launched a series of Ground-and-Pound continuously, making the opponent no longer resistant. The referee immediately announced the absolute victory for the Vietnamese home team after just over 4 minutes of competition.
The notable situation occurred after the battle when Truong Yen Long could not leave the ring itself due to being stunned, and was forced to be carried out, then transferred to the hospital to check. This image is completely opposite to his arrogant attitude and his confident “neck” before the match.
Despite the overwhelming victory, two Vietnamese boxers still show the professional sports spirit when they take the initiative to help the opponent wake up and shake hands after the battle. Thanh Thoan shared: “I am quite surprised with the physical strength and spirit of Mr. Yen Long. Although winning, I still respect the opponent.”
This victory is not only a sharp response to disrespectful statements from China, but also shows the outstanding progress of Vietnamese boxers on the international MMA floor.
