Right from the opening bell, the Thai superstar's fighting approach is to let go of his kicks and attack the body and legs of his Turkish-Russian challenger.
Less than a minute into the championship battle, Tawanchai unleashed a powerful leg kick that landed on the lead leg of Yusupov, making him unable to continue the match.
This highlight-reel TKO finish by the 25-year-old striking phenom has retained his 26-pound golden belt and proved that he has tremendous power on his strikes. It was also his fifth victory under the world's largest martial arts organization.
