Nami, of Nassau Place, Chapeltown used a 'Rambo-style' knife to inflict the fatal knife wound to 21-year-old Mr Ly's chest as the two men fought on Chapeltown Road.
Nami and Mr Ly had fought with each other just over a fortnight previously and both were armed with knives on the night of the fatal stabbing.

"You were the person who brought the knife to the scene and you were the person who stabbed Mr Ly.."
"You have shown no remorse for the killing of Tcherno Ly."
Jurors in the rape trial heard this week how Nami committed the offences against the girl in 2018.
After being found guilty of the rape offences, Judge Geoffrey Marson QC told Nami he must serve a further six years in custody before he can apply to the parole board for release on licence.
