The fight went the distance and as expected there were fireworks. Both Topic and Matias used everything in their arsenal throughout the fight, truly showcasing why Muay Thai is called the science of 8 limbs. It was what the WKA’s first pro rules US title fight should look like. The fight was a back and forth and the biggest winner was the crowd in attendance, but in the ring Topic was declared the new WKA Pro Full Rules Muay Thai US Lightweight Champion after taking home a unanimous decision.
In the night’s co-main event and only other pro Muay Thai fight, Brian Collette of Virginia pushed his pro record to 2-0 with a second round knockout of Georgia’s Kevin Brooks. Both of Collette’s pro victories have come via KO, and should definitely have people paying attention to him with a victory of a veteran such as Brooks.
