The fight veteran managed to put away his opponent, revered Cambodian Khmer boxing specalist Vorn Viva, with a decision win following a tough 15 minutes. The Thai legend, who trained out of Phuket's Tiger Muay Thai & MMA Training Camp in Chalong in preparation for his MMA debut, chose to exchange strikes with Viva for most of the bout though he did test his newly-acquired grappling skills.
Jomhod managed to take down Vorn Viva twice, once with a bodylock, and ended the second round pummelling the Cambodian as he sat on top of him. Both men cracked each other several times with vicious overhands and thumping kicks amongst the backdrop of screaming fans at Live House Studios.
The promotion, organised by former Patong Boxing Stadium announcer Jon Nutt, put together a card of eight fights that included several Phuket-based fighters.
Masood Ranjbar, a heavyweight Iranian fighter out of AKA Thailand in the Rawai/Nai Harn area, won his debut bout against experienced Frenchman Yoann Gouaida (4-4) via decision. The Iranian managed to takedown Gouaida seemingly at will and managed to hurt the Frenchman's left eye during the first round with vicious elbows from the top.
The rest of the bout saw Masood take Gouaida down a few more times though some brief punches were exchanged in the third round.
Earlier in the night, Tiger Muay Thai fighter Michael Dubois (1-2) – who started his MMA career when he accepted a main event bout on 24-hours notice at the first FMD show in Phuket last June – lost his bout against Dmitrijs Homjakovs (2-0) via TKO.
The Frenchman started out of the gate early, landing strong punches and a head kick – legal in the promotion – before he was knee'd in the head and kicked in the final minute of the first round, prompting a referee stoppage.
Meanwhile, Phuket Top Team-trained Andres Da Forno walked away with a TKO victory in the first round over Jason Archilla as both men made their MMA debuts.
Still, the night belonged to Jomhod, who told The Phuket News that he is excited to fight MMA again.
