Social Media Reactions From The Stars Of ONE: REIGN OF VALOR
The stars of ONE: REIGN OF VALOR have finally spoken.
After an action-packed weekend at the Thuwunna Indoor Stadium in Yangon, Myanmar, the biggest winners from ONE Championship’s latest martial arts spectacle have shared their reactions on Facebook and Instagram.
Reigning ONE Welterweight World Champion Zebaztian “The Bandit” Kadestam, featherweight contender Phoe “Bushido” Thaw, and others had a lot to say following their victories on Friday, 8 March.
Zebaztian Kadestam
Following his first ONE Welterweight World Title defense, Zebaztian Kadestam was emotional in the cage.
He thanked everyone for their support, introduced his little brother to the global audience, and wished females all around the world the best on International Women’s Day.
The Stockholm native continued to show his gratitude on his social media channels, where he once again thanked his team, his loved ones, and all the fans.
Aung La N Sang
Two-division ONE World Champion Aung La N Sang attended ONE: REIGN OF VALOR to cheer on his compatriots and coach them to victory.
Fortunately for him, Myanmar experienced a clean sweep inside the Thuwunna Indoor Stadium.
The next day, however, “The Burmese Python” experienced another special moment. He ran into Kadestam at Yangon International Airport. Both World Champions took a picture together, and the Myanmar sports icon wished him well on his martial arts journey.
Phoe Thaw
Nearly four months after suffering his lone career blemish, Phoe “Bushido” Thaw returned to the win column.
The Yangon-based striker finished Indonesian mixed martial arts pioneer Yohan “The Ice Man” Mulia Legowo with just four seconds remaining in the opening stanza to secure his seventh professional win.
