'The Angel Warrior' landed a vicious combination of a left hook and a right kick that instantly sent 'The Baby Face Killer' down the mat not knowing where he was at that moment.

Once Panpayak connected on these strikes, he immediately knew that it was over, and seconds later, the referee officially called off the match in his favor via second-round knockout.

This victory of the 28-year-old Thai star earned him his fourth triumph under the world's largest martial arts organization and marked his first stoppage victory since his promotional debut in December 2018, when his first three wins were unanimous decisions.
