In September last year, Petchtanong petchtanong petchfergus, who carried many halos such as IPCC World Muay Thai Champion, WMC World Muay Thai Champion, Martial Arts Fighting World Cup Champion and many other halos, came to the ONE Championship, but to everyone's surprise, he was defeated by KO in just 6 seconds in his debut, and the person who brought him such a tragic defeat was Capitan Petchyindee Academy.
In January this year, Capitan once again kopped the defending champion Alaverdi Ramazanov with a stunning two-legged combination of punches and legs to become the new king of kickboxing in the weaselweights. Capitan has won the world championship title with two high-quality matches, and before that he has won 13 consecutive championship titles such as Lumpini and WPMF, and is a well-deserved top powerhouse.
On September 24, Capitan will face his first world title defense in "ONE: Groundbreaking" against Algerian star Mehdi Zatout. Mendy has won the WBC World Muay Thai Championship, the WMC European Muay Thai Champion and the ISKA World Kickboxing Championship. The protagonists of this weweight kickboxing world championship battle are all from Muay Thai and have won the Title of Muay Thai World Champion of different organizations.
Unlike The Strong Style that Capitan showed, Mendy was more adept at fighting his opponents with his mind and skill, which also made him a TKO suspended by the referee for injury only once in hundreds of games, and never koko. After signing for the ONE Championship, Mendy only played a 2-2 record, but the two opponents he defeated were French Muay Thai famous Leo Pinto and Chinese Muay Thai famous Han Zihao, two wins with full gold content.
Kapitan has also had the experience of playing against Chinese players, and in the 2019 Wulin Wind-China Thai Confrontation, Kapitan represented Lumpini to defeat Meng Qinghao, one of the "Three Musketeers of the Armed Police", to help Thailand win the victory.
Shortly after Qiu Jianliang signed for the ONE Championship, he said: The player he wants to play against is Capitan. This is because of Capitan's strong performance in the ONE Championship, but also because of his world title. Therefore, if you want to see the future peak showdown between Kapitan and Qiu Jianliang, then first Kapitan must win this defending battle.
Can Capitan successfully defend his title and meet Qiu Jianliang's possible future challenges with the strongest posture? The answer will be revealed in "ONE: Groundbreaking" on September 24.
