Koushi passed his first test at Omnoi Stadium in the most decisive way, ending a 115-pound Muay Thai bout with a right elbow in round three. The finish came as Thai southpaw Sindet Singarcha stepped in to clinch.
The fight was built on timing. From an orthodox stance Koushi landed right low kicks through round one, backed away from Sindet's kicks, and caught the left middle kick with a right straight to take control. In round two his right calf kicks landed in a run, and Sindet appeared hurt. Late in the round a right straight and a left hook landed cleanly and brought Sindet close to a knockdown. In round three Koushi hit a left hook and a right straight before the elbow ended it.
The setting made the win more notable. Omnoi Stadium shows are known for deep talent, and this one used same-day weigh-ins, which leave almost no time to recover before the bout. According to Gong Kakutogi, Koushi handled the unfamiliar schedule without trouble.
