In just 52 seconds, Jaosuayai Mor Krungthepthonburi shattered the expectations of fight fans worldwide and claimed his spot amongst the flyweight Muay Thai elite with a devastating knockout of fifth-ranked Nakrob Fairtex at ONE Fight Night 32.
The stunning upset unfolded at Bangkok’s legendary Lumpinee Stadium on Saturday, 7 June, where the 23-year-old Thai sensation turned his primetime debut into a masterclass of precision striking that left the veteran contender unconscious on the canvas.
Jaosuayai’s tactical brilliance became evident immediately as he exploited a crucial weakness he had identified during his fight preparation – Nakrob’s tendency to drop his guard when pressing forward aggressively.
The explosive sequence began when Jaosuayai landed a perfectly timed head kick that visibly stunned Nakrob, immediately following up with a devastating three-punch barrage that sent his opponent crashing to the mat for the first knockdown.
Sensing victory within his grasp, the ONE Friday Fights graduate refused to allow Nakrob any recovery time, launching into his opponent with a flying front kick before connecting with powerful hooks that set up the fight-ending moment.
The final blow came in the form of a thunderous left head kick that rendered Nakrob completely unconscious, marking one of the most emphatic finishes in recent flyweight Muay Thai history.
The spectacular performance earned Jaosuayai not only his eighth victory in 10 ONE Championship appearances but also a coveted US$50,000 performance bonus, pushing his professional record to an impressive 60-22.
With five consecutive victories now under his belt in ONE, Jaosuayai has firmly established himself as a legitimate threat in the flyweight Muay Thai division and a potential future title challenger.
