Aung La N Sang made quick work of Alexandre Machado. He also made ONE Championship history.

Sang, already a middleweight champion, knocked out Machado in 56 seconds with a thunderous head kick to claim the vacant light heavyweight title and become a two-division champion for the promotion.

Sang (22-10) vs. Machado (8-3) served as the main event for ONE Championship 68, which took place today at Thuwunna Indoor Stadium inYangon, Myanmar.

The victory was Sang’s third in a row and seventh in his last eight fights.

Here’s the finish, via Twitter:

“Life is short. We have to make it count,” Sang said after his win. “One thing is for sure Myanmar, when we’re united, nothing can stop us. That head kick is what we’ve been working on. I want to thank everyone that helped me out to get here. I’m in here by myself, but this is a team sport. If we’re united and we’re together, we can do anything. I want to be the best, and I want to defend these two belts. I’m not just going to hold them and leave.”
