"Ahead of former two-division ONE MMA World Champion Aung La N Sang's Middlweight MMA showdown with Turkish powerhouse Shamil Erdogan ONE 168: Denver, we dug into the archives to bring you his three-round battle with Polish star Michal Pasternak at ONE: STATE OF WARRIORS in 2016!"

'The Burmese Python' immediately imposed his dominance in the opening round when he opened a cut on the Polish fighter's left eye.
Aung La continued his relentless attack in the first half of the second round by raining combinations. However, he was met with more resistance from Pasternak with multiple takedowns and submission attempts.
Then, in the final round, the former two-division MMA world champion fully capitalized on the visibly gassed Pasternak by stringing up several combinations on the feet. He concluded the fight with vicious ground-and-pound strikes to secure the unanimous decision victory.
