Jack Siatanyokkrok PK is finally coming home. This Friday, November 6, the Thai veteran returns to the biggest stage in martial arts for the first time in three years, headlining ONE Friday Fights 177 against Isannuea Sor Sasiwat inside Bangkok’s Lumpinee Stadium. And, most importantly, he’s not treating this as just another fight.
Jack Is Ready For His Long-Awaited ONE Championship Return At ONE Friday Fights 177
A Three-Year Wait Finally Comes To An End
It’s been three years since fans saw Jack last compete under the ONE Championship banner.
The Thai veteran strapped on the 4-ounce gloves and made his promotional debut on the ONE Friday Fights circuit in 2023, and that year, he authored a pair of knockout performances, finishing both Mardanglek Nakatawan and Darkie Nokkhao KorMor11.
But then, he disappeared from the ONE Championship spotlight. Jack was still active, as he traded the small gloves for the bigger 8-ounce mittens and developed his skills on the regional scene.
“I’ve still been actively fighting – mostly under the five-round traditional fights. My performances have actually been pretty solid. I never stopped fighting. I kept the momentum going,” he said.
“Now, I’m super excited and honestly overjoyed to fight in ONE Championship again. It feels like getting a second chance at life because this is the ultimate dream and hope for both myself and my family.”
A New Camp Fuels His Comeback
Jack made a big change for his ultimate dream.
This past July, the 31-year-old joined the legendary PK Saenchai Muaythaigym, which currently features ONE Strawweight Muay Thai World Champion Prajanchai Pongsuphan PK, ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion Yod-IQ Or Pimolsri, and former ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Champion Tawanchai PK Saenchai.
“There are so many brand-new things I’ve just discovered here. Everything from the training regimens and sports science to weight management. It’s completely eye-opening,” Jack said.
“Plus, they have specialized trainers: a coach purely for boxing combinations, a coach for elbows, and everyone here is exceptionally talented. Because of all this, my skills have leveled up significantly compared to the past.”
A Battle Of Knockout Artists Awaits
Standing across from Jack is Isannuea, a fellow finisher who has ended every one of his four ONE Championship victories early.
Isannuea brings a come-forward style built around devastating body attacks that set up bout-ending shots upstairs, and his durability and aggression make him a dangerous test for anyone willing to trade with him.
Jack, however, welcomes exactly that kind of firefight, expecting the two finishers to clash head-on from the opening bell with little regard for caution.
“I reckon this fight is going to be an absolute war. Both of us are [going to] meet right in the center and trade blow for blow from the get-go. And if someone gets clipped first, I believe a quick finish is definitely on the cards.”
