'The Burmese Python' Aung La N Sang is looking to add even more wins to his impressive record. The former two-division world champion has now earned two first-round TKO stoppage wins in a row.

After stopping Gilberto Galvao at ONE Fight Night 6, Aung La noted how much he wants to fight at ONE Championship debut event on United States soil. In his post-fight in-circle interview, he said:

"Chatri, if you need me, let me know. I'm available for whenever, the Denver card, let's go!"

ONE Fight Night 10 has been booked for Denver, Colorado, on May 5. Headlining the blockbuster event is a trilogy bout between 'Mighty Mouse' Demetrious Johnson and Adriano Moraes, with the former's flyweight world title on the line.

'The Burmese Python' continued:

"It feels great to be back. I had a little layover and now I'm back to fighting and in three months, let's keep this ball rolling. I'm excited to go again."

When asked if he has anyone in mind for the Denver-held ONE Championship event, he answered:

"Anyone - it don't matter. I'm ONE Championship’s hitman. Let's go anybody. A title fight would be good too. Let's go!"

Aung La N Sang is back!

At 37 years old, Aung La N Sang is having an impressive career resurgence. Since losing his crowns at light heavyweight and middleweight, he has gone 3-1.

In 2021, he earned a first-round knockout finish over Leandro Ataides. Next, he finished his trilogy series against former world champion Vitaly Bigdash in a losing battle.

He's followed that up with two first-round TKO wins in quick succession. Aung La stopped MMA veteran Yushin Okami last November, and just this past week, he stopped Brazil's 'Giba' Gilberto Galvao.

Aung La N Sang now wants to get on the highly anticipated ONE Fight Night 10 card on May 5 in the U.S. While he doesn't have an opponent in mind, 'The Burmese Python' has a date planned already.

Aung La wants to show how exciting of a fighter he is to fans in America. In an interview with ONE, he said:

“Evolution is what I hope the fans see. An evolution to my game, that I can do everything, that I can do it at a high level, and that I’m a fan-friendly fighter – meaning that it’s a fight that fans will get to enjoy."
