A Flyweight Chess Match Headlines The Night

Precision, not power, figures to decide the main event when Khunpon Aekmuangnon and Panpadej Looksuan square off in a flyweight Muay Thai clash between two of the series' most polished young strikers.

Khunpon has made his name with a wicked southpaw body kick, a weapon that has quietly wrecked opponents throughout his year-long run on the ONE Friday Fights circuit. At only 20, he already carries a 63-18 mark and a composed, mature approach that belies his age.

Panpadej counters with something even rarer: near-flawless efficiency. His 58-7 career record includes an eye-popping 89 percent win rate, the product of a game built on calculated shot selection rather than raw aggression.

Neither man is inclined to take a step back, setting up a technical battle where a single lapse in judgment could decide everything.

Experience Meets Fearless Youth In The Co-Main Event

The co-main event flips the script entirely, pairing a seasoned veteran against a hungry teenager.

Denkriangkrai Mavinn Muaythai, a 27-year-old fixture of the weekly series, has made a career out of frustrating opponents with slick southpaw angles and suffocating clinch work, and he's rarely been the less experienced man in the ring.

That changes little on paper against Abdessamie Rhenimi, a 19-year-old Moroccan making his first real test against a name of Denkriangkrai's caliber.

Training out of Petchsaman Gym, Rhenimi has shown no hesitation stepping up in competition, and a victory here would instantly put him on the map. For Denkriangkrai, though, this is a chance to prove that experience still trumps enthusiasm.
