ONE FC 11: Khim Dhima finishes Catalan in the first stanza
Khim Dima started round 2 with a big kick that landed flush on Catalan’s chin. As the round progressed, Catalan landed his third takedown of the fight, once again, perhaps, overwhelming his opponent. The referee, though, stood both parties up with Catalan failing to land anything substantial on top. Catalan than went for another takedown, but Dima was anticipating it well, and with Catalan still holding onto his leg, he rained down a barrage of punches that forced the referee to make an intervention.
A good win for the Cambodian on his pro MMA debut.
