The competition in the ring is cruel and fierce, and the twilight hero is either completely knocked down or actively waved goodbye, leaving a good memory for boxing fans. "Computer fighter" Yasan Clay chose the latter, and he announced his retirement on social media. "I'm retired! Thank you to each and every one of you for your long-term support of me. ”
Yasan Clay is accompanied by a contrasting photo of himself in 2013, with a strong physique and six abs, and on the right is his current self, a middle-aged man with a belly and a kind smile. In this way, Jason Clay euphemistically said that the ring no longer belonged to him.
Since his first appearance in the ring at the age of 8, Jasan Clay has been fighting for 27 years. He played from 112 pounds (50 kg) to 168 pounds (75.6 kg) and won the WBC World Championship, the Asian Tekken Rookie Champion, WPMF, WMC, Lion Fight, THAIFIGHT and other titles, winning the "Royal Trophy" presented by the royal family themselves. From 2012 to May 2019, he set a seven-year unbeaten record, winning 31 consecutive games, and the title of "First Man of Muay Thai" is well deserved.
"Computer Fighter" is calm and fierce in the boxing arena, his mid-section sweep kick seems to have infrared guidance, can accurately hit the opponent's soft ribs, and successively defeated marat, Enrique Kohl, Dazhanba Ascolov and other famous players, bringing countless classic battles to Chinese boxing fans. But years of fighting left Jasan Clay injured. In 2017, Jason Clay announced his retirement for the first time due to a knee injury. "Because of my age and physical condition, although I look healthy and have no problems, I have been plagued by injuries. Because of the surgery, I adjusted and rested for a year, and I didn't feel like I was the same as before. Injuries have had a big impact on me, and now I don't want to force myself, thank you for your support, I decided to leave the ring and retire. At that time, Yasan Clay's words were full of reluctance and regret, and boxing fans knew that he still wanted to fight in his heart.
Sure enough, Yasan Clay chose to re-fight in the ONE Championship after recuperating. Inside the Tokyo Cage, Jasan Clay ko-and-suva for two rounds, ending an 11-year feud between the two. But after that, Yasan Clay never tasted victory again. In May 2019, Yasan Clay was knocked down by "AK-47" Sami Sana in the first round of the featherweight eight, interrupting the record of 31 consecutive wins. Six months later, he was KO by Jamal Yusupov at the Beijing arena and fell in the ring in an even more tragic way. In July 2020, Yasan Clay, who has a family, launched a sprint towards the featherweight Muay Thai World Champion, and his form recovered, his left leg was strong and powerful, and the upper hook punch was amazing. But this time, Peter Morak used the hug tactic to crush the "computer fighter's" final dream of winning the championship.
When Yasan Clay announced his retirement, there was no reluctance or regret in his smile. He burned his fighting spirit in the ring, gave everything, left countless classic scenes, and won the respect of boxing fans. As a Muay Thai legend, what do you want?
Thank you Yasan Clay for bringing us passion and touch, and wish you all the best in the future!
