WATCH: Two-sport king Jonathan Haggerty gets absolutely hyped in younger brother Freddie's clutch KO over Kaichon

Reigning two-sport bantamweight world champion Jonathan Haggerty was a very proud big brother this past weekend after he witnessed his younger brother Freddie secure his second win in ONE Championship.

Jonathan was in Freddie's corner at ringside when he pulled off a buzzer-beater knockout win against Kaichon Sor Yingcharoenkarnchang in the opening round of their strawweight Muay Thai fight inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok.

'The General's' instant reaction was caught on camera by ONE Championship, and they recently posted it on Instagram, with the caption:

"Sibling success 💪🔥 Can Jonathan Haggerty continue the siblings' winning streak by successfully defending his bantamweight Muay Thai strap against Superlek at ONE 168: Denver? @freddiehaggerty_ @jhaggerty_"

As seen in the video, Jonathan immediately stood up when Freddie dropped Kaichon in the dying seconds of the round.

When the referee officially waived off the match, awarding the younger Haggerty the knockout win, the ONE bantamweight Muay Thai and kickboxing world champion jumped inside the ring and carried his triumphant brother.

This was Freddie's second straight knockout win under the world's largest martial arts organization. He won his promotional debut in January 2024 at ONE Friday Fights 49 against Dankalong Sor Dechapan.

Aside from witnessing his brother's highlight reel finish, 'The General' also made a special appearance during the card and faced off against his upcoming opponent, Superlek Kiatmoo9, ahead of their megafight on September 6 at ONE 168: Denver for the ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title.

They were seen going head-to-head in front of the packed crowd. The British superstar aims to avenge his previous defeat that came at the hands of 'The Kicking Machine' at Yokkao and extend his reign as a double world champion.

ONE 168: Denver will air live from the Ball Arena in U.S. primetime on Sept. 6. Tickets for the event are available on Ticketmaster.
