In the fight that you can see in the video above, So Sovarathana is opposed to a kickboxer named Neymar. The opposition between the two men will come to an end when So Sovarathana puts an elbow to his chin, which made his opponent’s lights go out.

A huge knockout, followed by a relatively impressive reaction from the referee, who threw himself to the ground to soften Neymar's fall. A reflex that prevented the fighter from suffering unnecessary damage. Not one for late stops, finally a referee is put forward for his exemplary behaviour.

At the UFC Rio Rancho, Jan Blachowicz confirmed his place as a challenger in the light heavyweight title, winning by KO against Corey Anderson in the first round. A performance that will surely give him the right to test himself against the current champion, Jon ‘Bones’ Jones.
