ONE strawweight Muay Thai queen Smilla Sundell walked through fellow world champion Allycia Hellen Rodrigues like a tank when they squared off against each other at ONE Fight Night 14.
In the buildup to their epic Muay Thai clash, the Swedish defending world champion was constantly warned about Rodrigues' insane power and super human strength. Ironically, there was less talk about what Smilla Sundell could do to Rodrigues.
The 19-year-old phenom walked through the ONE atomweight Muay Thai world champion like an army tank, mercilessly sending her into the shadow realm with a barrage of punching combinations and elbows until finding the knockout in the third round.
Fans have begun singing her praises on YouTube following the release of their world title bout this week.
