After a back-and-forth war of attrition for the duration of the contest, the Russian mauler hurt Sinsamut with a clinch elbow-knee combination and proceeded to finish the hometown hero inside of regulation.

Speaking to Sportskeeda MMA in a recent interview, Menshikov talked about bringing joy to the fans with his performance.

The 26-year-old Empire Club / Kuzbass Muay Thai fighter said:

"Even though he is one of the best in Thailand, I was able to finish him by knockout. I'm a fighter, my job is to give the best to the people. And, you know, we have a lot of motivation."

Needless to say, Menshikov has definitely earned his reputation as one of the most exciting fighters in ONE Championship. And his knockout win over Sinsamut last weekend just served as further proof.
