Moving down from Featherweight, where he held the UBO Inter-Continental title, Mikael Arutyunyan secured the vacant UBO world Super Bantamweight title in dominant fashion.

Coming in with a streak of nine straight stoppage victories, Arutyunyan wasted little time getting rid of former Asian Boxing Federation champion Chonlathee Srirat, a late replacement opponent.

Arutyunyan, also a former Asian Boxing Federation and WBC Asian titlist, was just too strong as he dropped and over-powered Srirat already in the first round.

The new UBO world Super Bantamweight champion improved his professional record to 19-2 (16). Srirat, who holds a win over current WBF world champion Toshihiko Era from Japan, drops to 10-4-1 (7).

24-year-old Chinese prospect Shoucheng Jiang had to work harder to lift the vacant UBO International Super Bantamweight title.

Jiang, who has boxed exclusively in Thailand since turning pro in September of 2024, was forced to use all his strengths to break down and stop Thailand´s tough and powerful Phirawat Panthong in round five.

It was a disciplined and well-executed performance from Jiang, who was coming down two weight classes since his last outing, last April, where he picked up the Asian Boxing Federation title at Super Featherweight.

Now 5-1 (5) Jiang is gaining valuable experience, and is one to watch out for as a possible successor to the new UBO world Super Bantamweight champion, Arutyunyan.

Having won his two previous fights, Panthong falls to 4-3 (4).
