In the evening’s main event, hard-hitting Japanese bantamweight Yuya Nakamura (8-1, 6 KO’s) brutalized Thai opponent Pongpasin Chulerd via effective third round KO win.

Josebelle was assisted in her corner by Filipino coach Toto Banarez.

The evening of fights did not go without a boxing surprise as heavy underdog flyweight Detnarong Omkrathok (2-9, 1 KO) climbed the ring to defeat the very confident, but ineffective Ryo Hashiya (2-1, 2 KO’s) of Osaka, Japan.

The Thai winner Omkrathok, 24, boxed well landing from a distance while the hard-swinging Ryo Hashiya put his chips on a one-power-punch that never came.

The end came as brave Thai girl Sumalee suffered a cut on her left eyebrow, prompting the ring doctor Jirasak Bubpachart to recommend third man Phanu Kusolwong, 32, the stoppage to protect the boxer’s eye, making Urvashi a winner by TKO in round 6.
