FREE FULL FIGHT: Mikey Musumeci makes Gantumur Bayanduuren pay for his toughness with a terrifying leg crank

Current undisputed ONE flyweight submission grappling world champion Mikey Musumeci has instilled fear in other contenders in his weight class after a successful world title defense and a dominant performance against the challenge of Gantumur Bayanduuren.

In January 2023, at ONE Fight Night 6, Musumeci was slated to defend his 26-pound golden belt against Bayanduuren. He showed no mercy during the match when he cranked the Mongolian's leg for an extensive period.

ONE Championship reposted the full fight of their showdown on their YouTube channel recently and wrote the description:

"Check out the insane duel between flyweight submission grappling king Mikey Musumeci and Combat Sambo World Champion Gantumur Bayanduuren at ONE Fight Night 6!"

In the video, 'Darth Rigatoni' punished Bayanduuren with his signature technique of the heel hook. Musumeci twisted Bayanduuren's legs in different angles and variations, but because of his toughness, he wasn't submitted, and the match ended without a tap from either fighter.

Despite the immense pain, Musumeci put Bayanduuren through, ultimately suffering multiple ligament tears, the Mongolian grappler survived to hear the final bell.

Musumeci eventually settled for a unanimous decision win for his first defense of his ONE flyweight submission grappling world title.
