Case in point, Ghazali recently suffered a heartbreaking setback against fellow rising star 'Panda Kick' Johan Estupinan at ONE 170 last January. But the teenager says he emerged an improved version of himself, despite the loss.

Speaking to South China Morning Post in a recent interview, Ghazali said he continues to get better with each fight.

'Jojo' said:

"I just fight. I fight. I’m young. I train as hard as I can, I fight the best way I can possibly think I can fight. And win or lose, who cares? I come to fight, I come train, I did what I thought was best, and that’s the best move you can make."
