"Totally outclassed" - Fans in pure awe of Superlek Kiatmoo9's utter control of Tagir Khalilov in Bangkok duel
Superlek Kiatmoo9's 11th win in ONE Championship came at the expense of Tagir Khalilov in July 2023 at ONE Fight Night 12 when he TKO'd the Russian in the second round of their catchweight Muay Thai battle that went down inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
The promotion recently reposted one of the best moments of Superlek during the match, and they captioned it on Instagram, saying:
"Superlek kept going 🤯 Will "The Kicking Machine" halt Jonathan Haggerty when he challenges for the bantamweight Muay Thai throne on September 6 at ONE 168: Denver? 👊 @superlek789"
The video featured the lethal combination that 'The Kicking Machine' unleashed against 'Samingpri.' He went for a leg kick, multiple punches, and several nasty elbows that backed up Khalilov against the ropes. Furthermore, the damage on his face became more visible.
This relentless attack that the reigning ONE flyweight kickboxing world champion fired was praised by fans, as users @sanjak.p, @dispatchrecordings_anttc1, @pef_learns, @jason_a_palmer, @zai0nne, @victorefi_ commented on the post with positive messages:
"Totally outclassed 🔥"
"Beat down this was"
"God mode"
"Those lead elbows are nasty!"
"The Killing Machine"
"A real razor blade"
