Flyweight An Ho didn’t waste any time picking up his second professional victory, and did so in brutal fashion.
The 21-year-old prospect improved to 2-0 in his young pro career with a devastating head kick knockout of Matt Barro at Friday’s LFA 135 event in Phoenix. The fight began with both competitors trying to find an early advantage. Barro hit a straight punch, before Ho countered with a head kick. Ho countered by landing a straight punch, before moving in on an overhand right attempt.

It was the second straight first-round KO win for Ho in 2022, with the other coming at LFA 124 in February. After an impressive amateur run that saw Ho go 7-0 with five finishes in a little under three years, the MMA Lab standout stopped Guilherme Crossi with a spinning backfist finish in his pro debut.
