Andrade, Tawanchai, Silva Earn $50K Performance Bonuses At ONE 158
ONE Championship Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong handed out three performance bonuses to a trio of athletes who finished their opponents in highlight-reel fashion at ONE 158: Tawanchai vs. Larsen.
Tawanchai PK.Saenchai, Fabricio Andrade, and Alex “Little Rock” Silva all left the Singapore Indoor Stadium with an extra $US50,000 on Friday night.
Tawanchai, the #5-ranked featherweight Muay Thai contender, shined in the main event.
The generational talent decimated Niclas “Dreamchaser” Larsen, ultimately putting him down for good in the second round with a powerful left cross.
That victory earned him the next shot at ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Champion Petchmorakot Petchyindee and $US50,000.
Andrade, the #4-ranked bantamweight MMA contender, also impressed at ONE 158.
The Brazilian phenom stopped #2-ranked “Pretty Boy” Kwon Won Il with a body kick in just 62 seconds to secure a performance bonus.
Silva, meanwhile, earned the first performance bonus of the night.
The former ONE Strawweight World Champion chained several submissions together before forcing Adrian “Papua Badboy” Mattheis to tap out with an inside heel hook in the first round.
With his victory in the highly anticipated rematch, “Little Rock” gained redemption against Mattheis and earned a cool $US50,000.
