British globetrotter Prince Patel added another belt to his ever-growing résumé, delivering a statement performance on Thai soil. Fighting in the main event last Saturday, January 31, at the World Siam Stadium in Bangkok, Patel captured the WBA Asia Gold super lightweight title with a fifth-round technical knockout over Tanzania’s Yahaya Mussa.

Patel, who has spent much of his recent career competing across international venues, figured Mussa out early. From the opening rounds, the Brit steadily broke down his opponent, imposing his rhythm and range. The end came in the fifth, when Patel’s punch volume and accuracy overwhelmed Mussa’s defenses, prompting the referee to step in and halt the contest to prevent further punishment.

With the win in Thailand’s capital, Patel improves his professional record to 34-1-2, cementing his reputation as one of the most active fighters on the WBA Asia circuit. Mussa, meanwhile, suffered the first loss of his career and now stands at 11-1-1, with 11 knockouts.

The newly acquired regional crown keeps Patel firmly positioned among the top contenders in the rankings, fueling speculation about a future shot at the regular WBA Asia title.
