Moroccan Kickboxer Said Kabil Stuns with Knockout Victory in London Comeback Fight
After spending two years without a fight due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Moroccan kickboxer Said Kabil returned to the ring on Sunday, April 3, at the Muay Thai Grand Prix in London. He made an impression by beating British fighter Gary Corbett with a huge KO.
Said Kabil succeeds in his comeback. In a hall of the O2 Arena last Sunday, the Moroccan kickboxer knocked out his opponent. He landed a huge axe kick with his left leg on the Briton, and followed it up with a stinging right hook. He then chained a few more blows - a right uppercut and a left cross. Inert, Gary remains standing. He is hit by another right-left combo from Kabil. The referee had to intervene and prematurely stop the fight.
After the fight, the Moroccan kickboxer went to check on his still groggy opponent before savoring his victory. "I can’t describe the feelings I’m feeling... I haven’t fought for two years because of Covid-19 and I haven’t had any opportunities, I’m finally back and I’m really hungry, I can’t wait to fight again and take control of this division," he said on his Instagram account.
