Aung La Nsang Reveals the Key to a Long-Lasting MMA Career

ONE Championship’s former two-weight titlist, Aung La Nsang, returned to the win-track by knocking out L. Atadies on July 30 at ‘Battleground’. Before that, he had suffered two back-to-back losses against R. De Ridder and had almost lost his position at the top. Well, Aung La’s global stardom and impressive MMA record have secured him the spot amongst the elites.

Having competed in 39 pro-MMA bouts, it’s quite valid that ‘The Burmese Python’ has suffered severe injuries in his career. However, he seems strong enough to compete for several more years. This may leave the door open for him to explore other MMA promotions outside Asia, like UFC, PFL, or Bellator.

However, the Burmese star seems extremely pleased with where he belongs now and has hailed ONE Championship for taking good care of his medical setbacks. In a chat with South China Morning Post, the ex-world champion detailed his relation with ONE’s medical administrators.

Aug La Nsang said, “[I’m] Getting good treatment and good diet, nutrition and that’s made my body feel better than it did in 2016. I remember in 2016, like every fight that I would go to before my fight, I would get injured, like a couple of weeks before and it hasn’t, knock on wood, but my body has felt a lot better.”

“I don’t have lower back issues anymore and stuff like that because I’m recovering better. I’m getting acupuncture and getting massages at the right time and the conditioning coach has been really, really good for me as well.” (H/T:- Sportskeeda)
