Moroccan kickboxing star Mohammed Boutasaa produced a fine performance to put an end to a two-fight losing streak at ONE Friday Fights 35.
Undefeated before those two losses, the man born in the Netherlands to Moroccan parents was able to get back in the win column with a unanimous decision over Turkey’s Furkan Karabag at the Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
Knowing he had a point to prove, Boutasaa came out strongly, picking his shots well, and avoiding the heavy shots being thrown by his opponent.
The second period didn’t go quite as well with Karabag starting to find a home for some heavy blows. But Boutasaa was able to ride out the storm before controlling the third round and taking the UD win.
He now improves to an overall record of 16-2 and can look forward in the ONE featherweight kickboxing division.
