In her next fight she faced Masha Valent during Kunlun Fight 10. She won by a tornado kick to clinch the IPCC Muay Thai title.[21]

In the following fight Kehan fought Emily Wahby for the WLF 60 kg World Title. She won a unanimous decision, to win her third title in a row.[22][23]

Over the next two years, Kehan won her next 7 fights in a row, with notable wins over Irina Mazepa[24] and Vicky Church. She then entered the Mulan 51.5 kg Tournament. In the quarter-finals she beat Juliana Werner by a 2nd-round TKO.[25] In the semi-finals she beat Anke Van Gestel by a unanimous decision after an extra round.[26][27] In the finals she fought Anissa Haddaoui, and lost a unanimous decision, after an extra round.[28][29]
