On Friday February, 10 2017 at One Championship: Throne Of Tigers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia at Stadium Negara
Ann "Athena" Osman (5-3-0) defeated Vy Srey Khouch (2-2-0) by TKO (due to Ground and Pound) at 2:48 of the first round of their 125-Pound Professional MMA match.
Ann is a 5'3 thirty year old fighter from Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. She trains at Borneo Tribal Squad MMA.

Ann tells Asia One.com how she got started in
“I
started with Muay Thai,” she recalls. “I was introduced by my current
coach in 2012, fellow ONE fighter AJ “Pyro” Lias Mansor.”
Originally, the Muay Thai regimen was just a way to stay in shape and pick up some tips on self-defense. However, Pyro had other ideas for his pupil.
“He slowly started teaching the team wrestling, which was my introduction to MMA,” she explains, reflecting on her beginnings. “I got hooked and kept coming to class.”
At the time, MMA was still a niche sport in Malaysia. The lack of mainstream attention or female faces proved no deterrent. Osman fell in love with the sport after her introduction to wrestling. There was also one landmark women’s fight that helped push her over the edge.
“Gina Carano was really hot at the time and she had her fight with [Cris] Cyborg,’” she says, citing their 2009 bout. “Women’s MMA was growing. I look up to Gina because she started with Muay Thai. She was a big inspiration and motivated me to train even more.”
