South Korean firecracker and current third-ranked ONE Championship bantamweight MMA contender ‘Pretty Boy’ Kwon Won Il is over the moon with his most recent performance and is beaming with confidence.
Kwon took care of business against dangerous Mongolian fighter Shinechagtga Zoltsetseg at ONE Fight Night 18: Gasanov vs. Oh on Prime Video, which took place at the iconic Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, on Saturday morning, January 13th.
After an intense back-and-forth in the early stages of the match, Kwon began to take over the fight with his well-rounded skill set. Known primarily as a devastating knockout puncher, Kwon utilized his highly underrated grappling skills to subdue Zoltsetseg, finishing the Mongolian in the second round with ground-and-pound.
In the post-fight interview with veteran ONE Championship broadcast analyst Mitch ‘The Dragon’ Chilson, Kwon shockingly called out retired boxing legend Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather Jr. to a match.

Of course, fighting Floyd Mayweather is a dream for pretty much any combat sports athlete, Kwon included.
