ONE Fight Night 36 Post-Fight Breakdown: Aung La N Sang rides off into the sunset with stunning TKO over Zebaztian Kadestam

ONE Fight Night 36 on Prime Video marked the perfect farewell for one of ONE Championship's most beloved heroes, Aung La N Sang.

On Friday, October 3, former two-division world champion made his final walk to the ring to lace up the four-ounce gloves one last time.

The electricity was palpable as devoted Burmese fans flocked to Bangkok’s sold-out Lumpinee Stadium, as they serenated their compatriot in his swan song.

The magnitude of his retirement match against former welterweight king Zebaztian ‘The Bandit’ Kadestam was evident before the bell even rang.

It was a war between two former world champions, two knockout artists with a gentleman's agreement to keep the battle standing.

What followed was unadulterated violence between polarizing figures known for their abilities to end fights instantly.

After a chess match-like first round, ‘The Burmese Python's familiar killer instinct kicked in round 2. The Kill Cliff FC veteran proved his venom remains potent.

The 40-year-old warrior uncorked his signature short yet punishing punches that packed destructive power.

The damage evidently was across Kadestam's face as his head snapped back from the pressure.

With his back against the ropes, ‘The Bandit’ put his defenses up, but was overwhelmed by a torrent of unforgiving punches and knees.

Then came the devastating right hand, which ended several fights over Aung La’s illustrious career that spanned almost two decades.

Kadestam collapsed, and more ground-and-pound followed. That was all she wrote.
