MACAU—Edward Kelly failed to rack up two straight wins after losing to former featherweight champion Narantungalag Jadambaa via technical knockout in the ONE: Pinnacle of Power Saturday at Studio City here in Macau.
Jadambaa (13-5) controlled the majority of the fight taking the match to the mat and he took advantage of a gassed out Kelly (10-5) with just seconds left in the second round.
Kelly gave his back to Jadambaa and the Mongolian took advantage by showering the Filipino with punches, prompting the referee to stop the fight 4:58 into the middle round.
This was Jadambaa’s first fight in almost two years after he last fought in November 2016 and lost the ONE featherweight title to Marat Gafurov.
Kelly has now lost two of his last three fights.
