Australian boxing star Jasmine Parr demolished her opponent Efasha Kamarudin, sealing victory on Wednesday night in Sydney via a technical knockout in the fifth round.
The 22-year-old Australian, who is the daughter of Aussie combat sports legend, John Wayne Parr, blasted her way past her undefeated Singaporean opponent, with a relentless onslaught of punches, to extend her fighting record to 8-1 at the ICC Exhibition Centre in Sydney.
However, there was a controversial moment during the fight, when Parr appeared to throw her opponent over her shoulder.
The Queenslander, who has received the backing of Aussie UFC great in recent weeks, backed her 34-year-old opponent into the ropes with a string of punches.
Kamarudin advanced forward and swung a big right hook at Parr.
The Australian, whose last fight came earlier in May, ducked out of the way of the big swing, appearing to get underneath the Singaporean as her momentum carried her away from the ropes.
Parr then stood up, lifting Kamarudin with her over her shoulder with a fireman's carry.
She then flipped Kamarudin over her back, with the 34-year-old's hips transitioning above her head, before falling to the canvas.
Thankfully, Kamarudin managed to twist her body in the fall, preventing her from landing on her head and neck.
'That could have gone either way,' the commentators on Kayo said.
The referee briefly paused the bout and gave Parr a warning over the illegal throw, with the fighter still going on to claim victory.
Fighting runs in the blood for Parr, with her dad, John, who is also known as 'The Gunslinger', having claimed 10 world championships during his glittering kick boxing and Muay Thai fighting career.
He also boxed professionally too, having won 11 out of 14 professional fights, claiming knockouts in 10 of those.
Parr began her fighting journey practising kickboxing and would later transition into boxing, having only lost once in her career - a defeat by Aussie boxing queen Shannon O'Connell last year.
Even Alexander Volkanovski has been impressed with her fighting ability, and perhaps after flipping her opponent over her shoulder in tonight's bout, the Aussie MMA great might be even more keen to coax Parr to join the UFC.
Her manager is Ash Belcastro, who also represents the likes of Volkanovski.
'I'd absolutely love for Jazzy to go to the UFC,' Belcastro said to Fox Sports.
'And we have spoken about it already.
'Right now though, she's shutting me down.
'She has goals and aspirations in boxing and I respect that.
'I'd actually love for her to achieve what she wants in boxing and then switch straight across to the UFC.
'Because she's a boxer who has also been a Muay Thai fighter, a kickboxer, and given her lineage … absolutely she can be a success there'.
