Arutyunyan (29), having his twelfth straight
fight in Thailand, faced a very game opponent in
the young Thai, and had to cope with an
aggressive start from Eaim Ong who went forward
and threw mainly power-shots, winning the first
two rounds on all scorecards.
But as he
tried to make a serious dent in Arutyunyan, Eaim
Ong forgot about his defense and was caught with
hard counters in round three, one of which sent
him down for the full count. Official time of
stoppage: 1:14.
Coming
off two victories at the same venue, the
Singmanassak Muaythai School, Easim Ong had
definitely come to fight his chance, but his
recklessness after a good start cost him dearly.

Arutyunyan
was patient and disciplined, and waited for the
right time to strike and it paid off. The new UBO
champion, who has previously won Thailand
national, Asian Boxing Federation and WBC Asian
Silver titles, took his professional record to
12-2 (9).
Eaim Ong,
who is also a former Thailand national champion
and a WBC and WBO regional title-challenger, drops
to 21-7-1 (15).
The fight
was promoted by Singmanassak Boxing headed by
Manop Iamthuam, the father of former WBC world and
UBO Inter-Continental champion Sirimongkhon
Iamthuam.
