The ONE Friday Fights 114 tentpole event is growing bigger and better with each passing day, as anticipation builds towards what promises to be an explosive evening of world-class martial arts action.
Recently, ONE Championship announced two more mouth-watering Muay Thai bouts that promise to set the stage on fire with technical brilliance and devastating striking displays.
Seven-time Muay Thai World Champion Panpayak Jitmuangnon returns to action to continue his ascent in the star-studded flyweight Muay Thai division where elite competition awaits at every turn.
After nearly a two-year hiatus, Panpayak returned to ONE with a unanimous decision win but was knocked out in his following outing. He then bounced back with a third-round TKO victory that showcased his resilience and championship pedigree.
Now, “The Angel Warrior” will look to start a win streak as he faces a man in red-hot form – Aslamjon Ortikov, whose meteoric rise has captured the attention of fight fans worldwide.
The young Uzbek has taken ONE Championship by storm, winning all seven of his bouts including three by knockouts, establishing himself as one of the division’s most dangerous prospects.
Ortikov remains undefeated in his career with 21 victories, and if he manages to defeat Panpayak, he could secure the coveted US$100,000 contract and spot on ONE Championship’s main roster.
With a seasoned veteran facing a rising phenom, this bout is a recipe for fireworks that could determine the future landscape of the flyweight division.
In another thrilling matchup, Japanese Muay Thai superstar Nadaka Yoshinari will clash with the Thai knockout artist Banluelok Sitwatcharachai in an exciting atomweight Muay Thai showdown.
Ten-time Muay Thai World Champion Yoshinari is arguably the best and brightest Japanese Muay Thai fighter, having conquered Thailand’s most prestigious stadiums and defeated the sport’s elite competitors.
The 24-year-old superstar has won almost every major title in Thailand and is considered among the top non-Thai Muay Thai strikers, with technical precision that has earned him widespread recognition.
Boasting 61 career wins and a fierce reputation, Yoshinari made his ONE debut at ONE 172 in front of his home crowd in Japan, where the atmosphere was electric.
There, he stopped the dangerous Rak Erawan in the third round of their highly anticipated bout, announcing his arrival on the global stage with authority and style.
Now, Yoshinari will look to decimate another big Thai star to make a strong case for the atomweight Muay Thai title – if and when the division’s strap is introduced.
