Australian Muay Thai returned to Perth this weekend as Muay Thai Super Series delivered a stacked card headlined by a major WBC World Championship showdown between two reigning world champions.

In the main event, Australia’s WBC World Super Featherweight Champion Shannon Gardiner dropped down a weight division to challenge the UK’s reigning WBC Featherweight World Champion Hannah Brady in a highly anticipated clash.

After five competitive rounds between the two world champions, it was Shannon Gardiner who emerged victorious, defeating Brady via unanimous decision to become a two-division WBC World Champion.
