Yuri Sakunts knocks out Thai fighter at tournament in Bangkok (VIDEO)
Boxing
Armenian boxer Yuri Sakunts (17-0) claimed a confident victory over Thailand’s Aphisit Nulae (3-5), knocking him out in the first round at a tournament held in Bangkok, 3 May.
For the 28-year-old Armenian, who holds several Guinness World Records, this was the 15th knockout win of his professional career.
Interestingly, Sakunts fought just nine days earlier in Moscow, where he also secured a knockout victory — that time against an Azerbaijani boxer.
It’s worth noting that another Armenian athlete, Mikael Harutyunyan, also competed that evening in Bangkok and won his fight as well.
