ONE 160 results and recap: Kantharaj Agasa victorious, Christian Lee and Tang Kai win world titles

Singapore, August 26: Indian MMA star Kantharaj Agasa had a spectacular showing at ONE 160: Ok vs. Lee 2 on Friday (August 26) at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. The "Kannadiga" finished Thales Nakassu in a bantamweight MMA matchup on the lead card.

Agasa put pressure on his opponent right from the sound of the opening bell, chasing "The Lion Dog" around the Circle with a flurry of strikes.

The two stayed standing for the majority of the fight, but the action didn't last long. The Indian MMA star used his right hand to deliver a technical TKO in less than three minutes of the first round.

The rest of the evening was equally as exciting as two titles changed hands in the headliner. In the co-main event, Tang Kai was the first man to hand Thanh Le a loss inside the Circle, capturing his ONE Featherweight World Title in the process.

After significant back-and-forth action, the Chinese athlete edged out the win after surviving much of Le's pressure. By winning the belt, Tang also became the first male Chinese MMA World Champion.

The main event saw Christian Lee reclaim his ONE Lightweight World Championship against Ok Rae Yoon. "The Warrior" was committed to leaving this rematch with the gold after a frustrating loss to Ok last year.

After dropping Ok and swarming him with a barrage of blows, the 24-year-old was successful, even earning himself a US$50,000 for his performance.

Also on the card, Saemapetch Fairtex finished Rittewada Petchyindee via a second round knockout in a bantamweight muay thai bout after Keanu Subba knocked out Amir Khan in the first round of a featherweight bout.

Plus, Martin Batur knocked out Paul Elliot in the first round of a heavyweight bout after Tommy Langaker claimed a decision win over Renato Canuto in a lightweight submission grappling bout.
