“I timed my shot well” - Fabricio Andrade glad to showcase his incredible counterstrking in emphatic title defense vs Kwon Won Il

Reigning and undisputed ONE bantamweight MMA world champion 'Wonder Boy' Fabricio Andrade of Brazil turned in one of his most impressive performances to date earlier this year.

Andrade made his highly anticipated return to action at ONE 170 in January to defend his gold. 'Wonder Boy' put on an absolute clinic, annihilating South Korean rival 'Pretty Boy' Kwon Won Il in the very first round of their heated matchup.

The Brazilian star was proud of his technique and still cannot get over that perfect night.

Speaking to Inside Fighting in a recent interview, Andrade detailed his finish of Kwon and how it came about.

'Wonder Boy' said:

"And my timing is good, and I saw he was repeatedly throwing one-twos, and I timed my shot well, I hit him with the body shot, and I knew I was going to knock him out."

Needless to say, Andrade has proven himself to be one of the most dangerous finishers in MMA today, regardless of promotion.
