Reading this record
Saw Htoo Aung is recorded at 17–5–3, with 12 of those 17 wins ending by knockout. Modern-era figures are the more dependable ones on this site: WLC and MTLF cards are sanctioned and their results published, so these numbers can be checked against event results rather than oral history.
71% of those wins came inside the distance, which ranks 2nd of the 29 profiled fighters with a documented record. In a sport whose traditional ruleset offered no decision at all, a finishing rate that high is the clearest signal of a fighter built to end contests early.
Saw Htoo Aung is one of 7 fighters profiled at lightweight, and fights orthodox, as 28 of the 32 profiled fighters do.
Saw Htoo Aung is listed as active, so this record is a snapshot rather than a final tally.
