Right from the opening bell, 'Jojo' immediately put on the pressure and marched down his 19-year-old Thai opponent. He used his powerful combinations to force his opponent to be on the backfoot throughout the match.

Samurai only mustered a few counterstrikes in an effort to stop the barrage from the Malaysian-American rising star. Still, it was not enough to persuade the judges to give him the victory, as Ghazali secured the unanimous decision nod.


Johan Ghazali expects a tough fight against Josue Cruz at ONE 168: Denver

Three months after receiving his first defeat in ONE Championship, which came at the hands of Nguyen Tran Duy Nhat, Ghazali will return to in action on Sept. 6 at ONE 168: Denver, where he will face Josue Cruz in a flyweight Muay Thai contest at the Ball Arena in Colorado.

With lessons learned from his match with the Vietnamese veteran, the Rentap Muaythai Gym representative is not looking past his Mexican opponent and expects a tough fight from Cruz on fight night.

He even expects Cruz to come out blazing on fight night. He said so in a recent interview with ONE Championship, where he stated:

"Ideally, I'd like a quick finish, but I'm not underestimating Cruz. I know he'll be eager to fight."

ONE 168: Denver will take place at the Ball Arena on Sept. 6, during primetime in the U.S. Tickets for the event are available on Ticketmaster.
