It's honestly it's either you win or you learn... every loss is like my first second and third attempt... if it takes me a 100 attempts to get the belt then I can't wait to fail a 100 times

From Episode 3: SARAWAK CHAMPION-JOHAN GHAZALI

Biography

Muhammad Johan Ghazali Zulfikar, universally known as "Jojo," is a teenage Muay Thai phenomenon, global combat sports standout, and one of Sarawak’s most celebrated modern athletic icons. Born in 2006 to a Malaysian father and an American mother, Jojo represents the world-renowned Rentap Muay Thai Gym based in Kuching, Sarawak, training under the strict guidance of his head coach, Addy Singpayak.

Jojo's meteoric rise to global prominence is historic. Competing on the world's largest martial arts platform, ONE Championship, he captured international headlines by scoring a devastating 16-second knockout victory in his promotional debut at ONE Friday Fights 6 in February 2023. By October of that same year—at just 16 years old—Jojo secured a highly coveted, life-changing six-figure (USD) main-roster contract with ONE Championship, becoming the youngest athlete ever to achieve that milestone.

Known for his hyper-aggressive, forward-pressing fighting style, devastating body hooks, and unbreakable chin, Jojo rapidly transitioned from a local prodigy into a mainstream superstar. Beyond his world-class striking inside the ring, his charismatic, media-savvy personality and deep pride in representing Sarawak have earned him a massive, fiercely loyal global fanbase.
