Former two-division world champion 'The Burmese Python' Aung La N Sang trained alongside 'The Situ-Asian' Martin Nguyen to help the Vietnamese-Australian athlete get a much-needed win.

The two former double-world champions trained with each other at the world-class Kill Cliff FC gym in Florida, USA. It certainly paid off as Nguyen earned a dominant victory against Leonardo Casotti at ONE Fight Night 7 on Prime Video.

Seeing his training partner win, in an interview with Tom Taylor of SCMP MMA, Aung La described:

"Man, that was a much-needed win you know. So I’m very very happy. He spent 12 weeks at my house, away from his family on Christmas and New Years so to get that win it was satisfying man. It was a relief and joy to see my friend win, you know."
