‘I Am Going To Put Him To Sleep’ – Shinechagtga Zoltsetseg Promises Finish Against Jhanlo Mark Sangiao

Mongolian striker Shinechagtga Zoltsetseg believes his superior boxing skills will be the key to victory when he squares off against Filipino rising star Jhanlo Mark Sangiao at ONE Fight Night 33: Rodrigues vs. Persson on Prime Video.

That pivotal bantamweight mixed martial arts showdown will air live in U.S. primetime from the legendary Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, on Friday, July 11, and Zoltsetseg is more determined than ever to deliver a statement-making performance at the iconic arena.

After suffering a second-round TKO loss to #3-ranked bantamweight MMA contender “Pretty Boy” Kwon Won Il in his most recent outing at ONE Fight Night 18, Zoltsetseg is eager to bounce back and showcase his improved skill set.

Standing across from him will be Sangiao, who brings his own dangerous abilities into Bangkok’s most sacred venue. The Filipino recently fell to #4-ranked Enkh-Orgil Baatarkhuu and will be looking for redemption against another respected Mongolian competitor.

Zoltsetseg recently spoke about his preparation and mindset heading into this high-stakes battle:

“I trained hard and put in a lot of effort for this fight against Mark, particularly focusing on my takedowns.”

Zoltsetseg’s dedication to improving his ground game reflects his evolution as a complete mixed martial artist. While his boxing has always been his calling card, the 28-year-old understands the importance of being well-rounded in MMA competition, where versatility often determines success at the highest level.

When it comes to analyzing his opponent’s strengths, Zoltsetseg remains supremely confident in his own abilities. In fact, the experienced fighter believes he holds decisive advantages across all areas of combat.

The Mongolian said:

“He has no advantages over me. My striking is superior, and my wrestling is also better. I can defeat him in both striking and wrestling.”

This unwavering self-belief has served Zoltsetseg well throughout his ONE Championship tenure.

As one of the top Mongolian MMA fighters on the global stage, the Ulaanbaatar native has shown time and time again that he thrives when his back is against the wall, and he’s entering this fight with the kind of mental fortitude that makes him incredibly dangerous.

Zoltsetseg predicted:

“If I touch him once, he is gonna go lights out. My boxing will be the answer. I am going to put him to sleep.”

Zoltsetseg Ready To Represent Mongolian MMA At 100 Percent Health

While Shinechagtga Zoltsetseg is completely focused on the task at hand against Jhanlo Mark Sangiao, he’s also eager to show fans what he’s capable of when operating at full capacity.

The Mongolian veteran has been hampered by injuries in recent years, but now he enters this crucial matchup fully healthy. This represents a significant development, as he looks to reclaim his position among the division’s elite.

For Zoltsetseg, this upcoming bout represents more than just another fight – it’s an opportunity to demonstrate his true potential:

“I entered my last two fights with some injuries, which is why I couldn’t push myself 100 percent. Now, I am fully recovered.”

That renewed physical condition has the Ulaanbaatar striker feeling confident about his chances. Having spent his training camp at Shiren Beelii Fighting Club with the support of his longtime team, Zorky MMA, Zoltsetseg believes his preparation has been optimal.

With legendary Mongolian boxing coach Baataryn Azjavkhlan in his corner, Zoltsetseg will have world-class guidance when he steps into the ring on July 11.

The stars seem to be aligning for Zoltsetseg, and he is now completely fixated on his primary objective at ONE Fight Night 33:

“I am focused and gonna win this fight.”
