Traditionally the Lethwei Golden Belt is passed on by incapacitating the champion by KO, TKO or forfeit, but if the title is vacant it is mandatory to determine a winner.
The result was a big blow to Lone Chaw's reputation, as the 63 kg challenger Win Tun controlled most of the fight.
[13] On July 27, 2008, Lone Chaw who was coming from 10 consecutive draws, defeated Lethwei rising star Wunna by TKO in Yangon.
Lone Chaw violated the MTLF traditional code of conduct and regulations in when he landed a heavy flying kick when on Saw Nga Man when he was in the corner of the ring with his back turned.
The electricity was restored within a few minutes but the crowd had turned on the champion Lone Chaw and was now cheering for Saw Nga Man on for the remainder of the bout.
He stated that the violation was made out of frustration since Saw Nga Man had been elusive and did not allow him to land his trademark flying knee or his straight right punches.
