18-year-old Muay Thai sensation Johan Ghazali Zulfikar, better known as Jojo, needed just two minutes and 10 seconds to seal a technical knockout in their flyweight clash at Lumpinee Stadium. — PIC BY ONE CHAMPIONSHIPFrom the opening bell, Johan pressed forward, forcing Zakaria, on a three-fight skid, onto the ropes under a barrage of punches and kicks.
A vicious body shot followed by a razor-sharp elbow to the temple floored the Moroccan, with Johan walking away as the referee waved it off.
The emphatic victory was a much-needed lift for Johan, who had lost three of his last four bouts, stalling his rise towards a world title shot.
Unlike his defeats to Colombian-American Diego Paez and fellow Colombian Johan Estupinan, where he struggled after being caught on the counter, the Malaysian teen showed composure in Bangkok.
He piled on the pressure without recklessness, giving Zakaria no chance to recover.
The win could prove a turning point as Johan looks to reignite his charge towards championship contention.  - NST
