ONE Friday Fights 88 full results and recap: Aslamjon Ortikov stays undefeated after shutting down Pompet
Aslamjon Ortikov kept his undefeated record and his hype train going with another stellar performance in the main event of ONE Friday Fights 88 on Nov. 22 inside 'The Mecca of Muay Thai', Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
The 21-year-old phenom passed his toughest test to date by outlasting Pompet PK Saenchai in their thrilling 130-pound catchweight Muay Thai contest.
The Uzbekistan striker started his methodical attack by chopping down his Thai foe's legs and mixing it up with pinpoint punches and elbows.
Ortikov scored big when he dropped Pompet with a stern right hand before the opening round ended.
Pompet played the aggressor in the second frame in a bid to bounce back from his rough start.
However, the TC Muaythai and Sport Club Shakhriyor representative was way too crafty and found a home for his overhand right each time the Thai tried to break in.
It was more of the same in the final frame, with Ortikov dictating the fight with sharp elbows and crisp right hands to cruise to another dominant unanimous decision win.
The victory marks Ortikov's sixth straight win in ONE and upped his overall record to a pristine 20-0.
