Takeru felt extreme pressure entering ONE Friday Fights 81
Despite being one of the very best kickboxers in the world, Takeru feared that a defeat to Thant Zin at ONE Friday Fights 81 would be the end of his career.
The Team Vasileus star shared a video of his knockout win on Instagram with the accompanying caption:
"First match after injury, I was under the pressure that if I lost this fight, it would be over. It's been a while since I was scared of a match. I was knocked down and woke up. I fought to the death, thinking that if I lost here, it would be over. I was able to return to my style of being determined and going out to defeat."
