Kevin Belingon showed no regard for the state of Andrew Leone ’s liver en route to a second-round TKO victory in today’s bantamweight main event at “ONE Championship 71: Heroes Of Honor.” Belingon (18-5) put on perhaps the best performance of his career against Leone (8-4) in the event headliner, which took place at Mall of Asia Arena in Manila, Philippines, and streamed online. After some competitive action in the opening frame, Belingon turned up the heat in the second. He timed a perfect turning back kick which connected hard on the liver of Leone and sent him crashing backward to the canvas. That’s when Belingon’s killer instinct kicked in. Belingon rushed his downed opponent and unleashed a relentless flurry of strikes. He mixed in punches and elbows, but it was a series of grounded knee strikes that finally forced the referee to step in and wave the bout off at the 2:17 mark of Round 2, giving Belingon his fifth consecutive win in ONE Championship competition
