Ben Askren went out with a bang.
Askren (18-0), ONE Championship’s unbeaten welterweight titleholder, needed just 57 seconds to score a TKO win over Japanese notable Shinya Aoki (39-8) in the main event of Friday’s “ONE Championship 65: Immortal Pursuit.” The victory was Askren’s retirement fight – or so he announced back in September, though he left the door cracked open for a return.
ONE Championship 65, which took place at Singapore Indoor Stadium, streamed as an online pay-per-view in North America.
