With nearly 20,000 likes, many fans likened the kick to the moveset of Liu Kang, a popular character from the Mortal Kombat video game and film franchise.
When Superbon isn’t busy landing video game-type kicks on the beach, he’s busy being the best in the world at his chosen craft.
With over 100 career wins, Superbon Singha Mawynn entered ONE Championship in 2020 and continued his dominance with wins over Sitthichai Sitsongpeenong, Giorgio Petrosyan and Marat Grigorian.
His win over Petrosyan sent shockwaves through the combat sports community as Superbon scored a highlight reel headkick knockout just seconds into the second-round of their bout at ONE: First Strike.
The win made Superbon the promotion’s first featherweight kickboxing world champion. He would go on to successfully defend the title against Grigorian at the promotion’s 10th anniversary spectacle ONE X.
