JAKARTA – Indonesian boxer Ongen Saknosiwi won by knockout (KO) in the second round over Jirawat Thammachot at Balai Sarbini, Jakarta, on Friday night.

This was Ongen's tenth win in ten games since his debut in 2016.

"The supporters at Balai Sarbini are extraordinary. Thank you Indonesia and thank you to the people of Malaku," said Ongen in the ring.

The boxer from Maluku has not suffered a single defeat from the nine matches he has played before. He even made a record of seven knockout victories in that total.

Thus, the victory over Jirawat was the eighth knockout win in Ongen's career.

Before Jirawat, Ongen also beat Thai boxer Rattakorn Tassaworn on March 4.

At that time, the boxer born in 1994 made his opponent give up in the fourth round to bring home the WBC Asian Boxing Council Continental featherweight title (57.1 kg).

The duel between Ongen and Jirawat is a co-main fight from the main party of Daud Jordan against Payah Uthok. Daud stepped into the ring in an attempt to defend his Asian Boxing Council Silver Super Lightweight (63.5 kg) title.

Previously, three undercard matches brought together George Lumoly vs Julio Bria (winner) and Egi Rozten (winner) vs Satria Sandika, and Silem Serang vs Ferengky Rohi (winner) for the UBO International Championship.

Julio Bria, Egi Rozten, and Ferengky Rohi, each came out as winners. All three are compact to win points over their opponents.
