Hold your breath, as the battleground is primed for several epic showdowns. ONE Championship is gearing up to deliver a spectacle of monumental proportions with ONE Friday Fights 49. Just like the previous editions, this event promises edge-of-the-seat moments, fierce competition and highlight-reel finishes.
ONE Friday Fights 49 boasts an exciting lineup featuring an array of muay thai clashes and diverse matchups that showcase the organization’s commitment to delivering top-tier combat sports entertainment. The main focus rests on the flyweight muay thai headliner, showcasing the talents of Nakrob Fairtex and Pettonglor Sitluangpeenumfon.
At 25 years old, Nakrob represents the next generation of muay thai excellence. Hailing from Thailand, he has showcased his skills in the ONE arena, accumulating a record that reflects his dominance. His recent performance against Dedduanglek TDed99 at ONE Friday Fights 41, where he secured a victory with a right straight to the breadbasket in the third round, underscores his striking prowess. Pettonglor, also fighting out of Thailand, is an under-the-radar athlete, yet wields formidable might in the bantamweight division. He has three decision wins to his credit leading up to the bout against Nakrob.
In the co-main event, flyweight Xavier Gonzalez brings his unique style to the ONE Championship stage, representing Spain in the world of muay thai. With recent victories against formidable opponents, including a unanimous decision against Omar El Halabi at ONE Friday Fights 40, Gonzalez is on a mission to continue his winning streak. Opposing him in the squared circle will be Kongchai Chanaidonmueang, whose name echoes through the muay thai community. Beginning his boxing journey at the age of 10, Kongchai has achieved significant titles, including the 2020 Rajadamnern Stadium 115-pound and 2020 Thanakorn Stadium 122 -pound championships. He is also the 2022 Jitmuangnon 126-pound champion. Other notable efforts include winning the ONE Championship “Performance of the Night” bonus against Kritpetch PK Saenchai.
ONE Friday Fights 49 is scheduled to take place on Friday at Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. The action-packed event will stream live and free in the player above at 7:30 a.m. ET/4:30 a.m. PT. A closer look at the ONE Friday Fights 49 particulars:
