Super Bantamweight Division
On December 14, 2025, Hong Kong hosted a compelling WBC MuayThai Greater China (Hong Kong) National Super Bantamweight Title contest, as local favorite Tsang Sik Hei went head-to-head with China’s Zhang Gu-Yin in a high-stakes battle for regional honors.
Round 1
Tsang Sik Hei set the tone early with an assertive, forward-pressing approach. Utilizing sharp punching combinations and well-timed kicks, he looked to dictate the pace of the contest. His consistent low kicks proved effective, disrupting Zhang Gu-Yin’s balance and limiting his ability to launch meaningful counters.
Round 2
Zhang Gu-Yin made key adjustments, adopting a more patient, counter-focused strategy. Closing the distance, he began to work from the clinch, employing elbows and knee strikes in an effort to shift momentum. Tsang, however, remained composed, successfully neutralizing much of Zhang’s offense and responding with clean counters, keeping the contest tightly contested.
Round 3
The turning point came in the third round when Zhang Gu-Yin landed a decisive elbow strike that opened a cut on Tsang Sik Hei’s forehead. Blood became a concern as the medical team closely monitored the injury to ensure fighter safety.
Stoppage
Following continued assessment, the bout was stopped at 1:01 of Round 4 on the advice of the ringside doctor and referee due to the worsening cut. As a result, Zhang Gu-Yin was declared the winner and crowned the WBC MuayThai Greater China (Hong Kong) National Super Bantamweight Champion.
Final Thoughts
The contest highlighted the contrasting styles of both athletes—Tsang Sik Hei’s aggressive, high-output offense and Zhang Gu-Yin’s composure, adaptability, and clinical use of elbows at close range. While the match ended via medical stoppage, both fighters demonstrated courage and high-level MuayThai.
The WBC MuayThai congratulates Zhang Gu-Yin on his championship victory and commends both athletes for an exciting and hard-fought title encounter.
