The kickboxing community was startled by the main event at ONE Fight Night 21 at Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, where Alexis Nicolas defeated Regian Eersel, the reigning two-sport champion.
The challenger was unanimously declared the winner by the judges, giving him the lightweight kickboxing strap and raising his record to 24-0 overall.
With a creative defence of his ONE Submission Grappling World Title, Tye Ruotolo forced Izaak Michell, his opponent, to tap out in under five minutes.
