Akbar Abdullaev stayed undefeated and kept his ridiculous 100 percent finishing rate at ONE Fight Night 22 over the weekend when he separated Halil Amir from consciousness.
After showcasing his underrated grappling arsenal, the heavy-handed 'Bakal' returned to his bread-and-butter and uncorked a massive left straight to hand 'No Mercy' the first loss of his professional career.
Collecting performance bonuses has also become a habit for Abdullaev, as he cashed in another cool $50,000 incentive from ONE Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong.
Post-fight, the 26-year-old from Kyrgyzstan revealed what he'd do with the extra moolah:
"I have plans about the bonus. First of all, I want to invest in myself. I want to become a better fighter. So hopefully this bonus can help me. Also, I'm giving some money to charity and of course, I plan to help my relatives."

"But when it comes to investing in myself, I want to have a really good training camp for the next fight, and the next fights in the future."
