Prajanchai PK Saenchai became a two-sport champion at ONE Friday Fights 68, beating Jonathan Di Bella for the vacant ONE Strawweight Kickboxing world title.
Di Bella put in a solid performance in the first two rounds, but Prajanchai made a comeback, utilizing his wide arsenal to claim a memorable unanimous decision victory – and become the first man to ever defeat Di Bella in a kickboxing contest.
ONE Flyweight Kickboxing world champion Superlek stretched his winning streak to ten, beating compatriot Kongthoranee Sor Sommai. Superlek put in another dominant display, leaving Kongthoranee no chance, and ending the latter’s impressive form that saw him pick up seven wins on the trot.
The two Russians fighting on the card endured starkly different outcomes in their bantamweight bouts.
Kiamran Nabati was awarded a six-figure ONE contract after an impressive first-round knockout win against Suablack Tor Pran49. With the win, the Russian Muay Thai star improved his spotless professional record to 21-0.
However, Nabati’s compatriot Alaverdi Ramazanov suffered a disappointing second-round TKO loss against the returning Thai veteran Petchtanong Petchfergus in a clash of two former ONE Bantamweight Kickboxing world champions. While Petchtanong may move closer to a title shot after his triumphant return, Ramazanov’s form slump continues with this loss his third in his last four bouts.
Elsewhere, Thailand’s legend Pakorn PK Saenchai made a winning promotional debut with a stunning first-round knockout of France’s Rafi Bohic whose compatriot Jimmy Vienot also suffered a defeat at the hands of Shadow Singha Mawynn, while Australia’s Tyson Harrison picked up a unanimous decision victory against Sibmuen of Thailand.
