Look back at Aung La N Sang’s methodical submission win over Alain Ngalani

Former two-division ONE world champion Aung La N Sang is one of the most experienced fighters on the roster. With a career spanning nearly two decades, 'The Burmese Python' has seen it all and done it all. Aside from simultaneously holding both ONE middleweight and light heavyweight world titles in the past, Aung La even had a brief stop at heavyweight in his storied MMA career.

The bout was against genetic beast Alain Ngalani at ONE: Hero's Dream back in 2017. In front of a rabid home crowd in Yangon, Aung La N Sang bravely took the fight to his heavyweight opponent.

Early in the bout, the obviously bigger Ngalani overpowered Aung La to the ground and controlled him with sheer brute strength and size. 'The Burmese Python', however, proved that technical proficiency trumps power by wearing out Ngalani with multiple submission attempts.

Eventually, the Burmese superstar locked in a tight guillotine choke to end the night early for Ngalani, who was visibly gassing out:
