5 exciting matches at Lion Championship 25 - Photo: MMA Vietnam
Spectators in Cam Ranh will watch the Lion Championship title match between 56kg champion Le Van Tuan - who just won against former champion Pham Van Nam at LC23 - and number 1 candidate Tran Ngoc Luong in the 60kg weight class.
Le Van Tuan will go down in Vietnamese MMA history as the first fighter to hold two championship belts at the same time in two different weight classes if he defeats Tran Ngoc Luong in the highlight match.
Tran Ngoc Luong is the martial artist with the best professional MMA record in Vietnam with 8 wins - 1 loss. He has never lost to any domestic martial artist on his journey towards the championship belt.
Both fighters have a solid foundation and proven jiu-jitsu skills. Van Tuan is the master of two choke moves, the buggy choke and the D'arce choke, in the Vietnamese MMA arena.
Meanwhile, Ngoc Luong defeated every opponent he ever faced with the skills of a national jujitsu champion.
In addition, Lion Championship 25 also recreates the MMA Duo "battle" between the duo Nguyen Xuan Phuong - Nguyen Ngoc Thuc against Raptor MMA including Nguyen Tien Long and new teammate Nguyen Thanh Thoan.
In the previous meeting, Xuan Phuong and Ngoc Thuc were defeated quickly after 55 seconds in a provocative match. This rematch promises unpredictable developments as Thanh Thoan will replace Trung Hai this time. All 4 fighters are eager for revenge and to prove their strength.
The support of new teammates in the Raptor team brings new momentum, and Xuan Phuong and Ngoc Thuc will fight with an uncompromising spirit. This is the most anticipated "2v2" match of the season.
LC25 also witnessed the rise of female martial artist Lo Thi Phung, nicknamed "jiu-jitsu teacher", who will face strong opponent Nguyen Vu Quynh Hoa in the prestigious women's 52kg title match.
Phung proved her mettle by winning with technical chokes against all 3 opponents at the previous Lion Championship. She is aiming for the first championship in her professional MMA career.
While Quynh Hoa possesses a diverse background in Muay Thai, Sanshou and traditional martial arts, she is the biggest challenge Phung has ever faced in this arena full of top techniques and tactics.
