Mark “Mugen” Striegl wanted a more comprehensive finish.
But a win is a win, prompting the Filipino-American fighter to celebrate his recent Universal Reality Combat Championship (URCC) success with a lunch and an exclusive movie screening with the media.
The 30-year-old Striegl retained his URCC 145 featherweight title against Japanese Shunichi Shimizu via a no-contest victory at Cove Manila Okada.
Shimizu, 34, was felled by an accidental low blow in the second round and was unable to continue.
“Shunichi gave me a tough time, but I saw that he really looked for a way out of the fight,” said Striegl during the press conference at Chic n’ Honey Nest restaurant in Vertis North Quezon City.
