Twenty -one years of sacrifice compressed in a last walk for Aung La n Sang. The emotions were not fully established when the largest sports hero in Myanmar thinks about his pension victory against Zebaztian Kadestam.
The 40-year-old former two-division One MMA world champion defeated Kadestam via TKO in the second round One Fight Night 36 On Friday, October 3, in Bangkok, Thailand’s Lumpinee Stadium. He won the 31st victory of his professional MMA career while earning a $ 50,000 performance from a chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong.
The opening round saw both former champions act carefully, each with regard to the knockout power that is opposite them. But when the second round started, “the Burmese Python” unleashed hell. Short punches found their mark on the face of Kadestam before a devastating right hand crumbled the Swedish striker against the ropes.
The referee stopped the fight at 2:20 when Aung La n Sang crashed, strikes on his defenseless opponent. The victory bore a special meaning because of who was opposite him. Kadestam was not just another opponent – he was a friend, someone who really respected Aung La n, both inside and external competition.
“It felt good. I don’t know – it is not soaked, you know? It didn’t come in, but I am sure it will be one for the centuries. I am just very grateful that it all went, and all the preparation and the hard work came,” he said.
“He hits so hard. I felt his punches, and now I know why he is cold. I have been a fan of him and a friend of his – it was quite difficult. But as a mixed war artist, as hunters, that’s what we do. For my last dance, who would do better against than someone I held up and someone who really as a pregnancy as a fed.”
Aung La n Sang reveals what has maintained him through the brutal career
The professional journey of the Myanmar icon started in 2005, with two decades of punishment and glory. From working as a Treke beekeeper to becoming the first MMA world champion of his country, Aung La n Sang navigated valleys that lesser men would have broken.
What kept him forward when the defeat seemed inevitably? The answer comes from somewhere deeper than trophies or salary. His retirement will not mark the end of his association with one championship. The promotion announced that he will be included in the One Championship Hall of Fame on Sunday 16 November in Tokyo, Japan.
His legacy transcends personal performance. Young hunters from Myanmar now see professional martial arts as a legitimate path because Aung La n Sang it turned out to be possible. The Hall of Fame recognition validates sacrifices for decades while they open doors for future generations.
“My love for this sport. My love for becoming a better version of myself and my faith in God,” he said.
“It is very cool. You work so hard for this, decades of hard work, and then it comes at the moment when you are worshiped by the promotion and by the people. It is a dream come true. I am very grateful and very grateful for this.”
“I hope to inspire the next generation above all. I hope to inspire my generation to do what is good and really work on a better future. Give you 100 percent. Live it and do it for love – not for the love of money, fame or something else.
