Kongkairop wasn’t letting a chance for a highlight-reel knockout slip away.
At a ONE Championship Friday Fights event in Bangkok, Kongkairop found a late finish of Rachan by pouring on the pressure and blasting him with a stunning standing knockout elbow.
Watch the amazing finish below.
The official time of the stoppage was 1:28 into the third round of the Muay Thai contest.
Kongkairop’s continually walked Rachan down throughout Round 3, pushing Rachan to the ropes and firing combinations. Though Rachan attempted to answer back, it was Kongkairop who landed the cleaner shots to force Rachan into defensive mode. Not that the strategy did Rachan much good as Kongkairop simply sized him up and slipped the finishing elbow right around his blocking arms. A rocked Rachan was unable to answer the count.
At just 19 years old, Kongkairop picks up his first win inside the ONE ring, while Rachan’s struggles continue as he has now lost three straight fights.
