										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Akif Guluzada is 5-0 in ONE Championship. Johan &#8220;Panda Kick&#8221; Estupinan was 5-0 in ONE Championship until two consecutive losses interrupted a rise that had made him one of the most talked-about names in the flyweight division. On June 26, those two trajectories collide.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Azerbaijani phenom and the Colombian fan favourite meet in flyweight kickboxing at <a href="https://www.onefc.com/events/onefightnight44/">ONE Fight Night 44: Jarvis vs. Rungrawee II on Prime Video</a>, live in U.S. primetime from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif.gif" alt="Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif" class="wp-image-13949"/></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Guluzada, 20, trains out of Team Mehdi Zatout and Team Chingiz Allazov and has been one of the most eye-catching fighters in the weekly series since his 2024 debut. He fights equally well from orthodox and southpaw stances, generating the kind of unpredictability that makes him difficult to game-plan against because opponents preparing for one version of Guluzada often meet a different one when the bell rings. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Three back-to-back victories in the weekly series earned him a contract, the third of those wins coming via a spinning elbow knockout of Puengluang Baanramba that became one of the most replayed highlights of the year. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Two unanimous decision wins since over Sean &#8220;The One&#8221; Climaco and Jaosuayai Mor Krungthepthonburi have maintained the unbeaten run while demonstrating the patience and fight IQ to win when the knockout does not materialise. He arrives at ONE Fight Night 44 as the clearest rising name in the flyweight kickboxing division and the logical candidate to push the top of the rankings.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="937" height="1024" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-23750" srcset="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg 937w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-274x300.jpg 274w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-768x840.jpg 768w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-600x656.jpg 600w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment.jpg 1189w" sizes="(max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><strong>SHOP: <a href="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/" title="">Kickboxing Equipment</a></strong> </figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Estupinan carries the distinction of being the first Colombian athlete to compete in ONE Championship, a trailblazing credential matched by the quality of his early promotional performances. His 5-0 start included a win over Johan &#8220;Jojo&#8221; Ghazali in 2025 in a result that announced him as a genuine contender. He has built a relentless forward pressure style and constant finishing threat that has made him a crowd favourite from his first appearance. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The two losses that followed have interrupted but not dismantled that identity. He returns to the flyweight kickboxing division at 23 years old with the same instincts intact and the specific motivation of a fighter who knows exactly what he is capable of and needs a result to prove it again.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Yodlekpet Or Atchariya has spent most of his career fighting men bigger than him. He is used to it. He has a system for it. And on Friday night at Lumpinee Stadium, he plans to use that system to dismantle Saw Min Min from the legs up.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The 31-year-old multi-time Rajadamnern and Lumpinee Stadium Muay Thai World Champion faces the Lethwei-trained Myanmar striker in the main event of <a href="https://www.onefc.com/events/one-friday-fights-157/">ONE Friday Fights 157</a> on June 5, live in Asia primetime from Bangkok, Thailand. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif.gif" alt="Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif" class="wp-image-13949"/></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Saw Min Min is dropping from bantamweight to flyweight for the bout, bringing heavier hands, a conditioned chin, and a background in the bare-knuckle brutality of Lethwei. It&#8217;s a discipline that produces fighters who neither panic when hurt nor hesitate when an opponent is in front of them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Yodlekpet has mapped out exactly why that advantage needs to be neutralised before anything else.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;He&#8217;s going to hold a massive size and power-impact advantage, and his chin will be conditioned to handle heavier volume,&#8221; Yodlekpet said. &#8220;The guy is incredibly durable. This is definitely not going to be a walk in the park. He packs real danger in his hands. That being said, I believe I hold the edge in raw power and precision.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The tactical answer is simple in its logic and demanding in its execution. Yodlekpet intends to attack the legs before he attacks the man, removing Saw Min Min&#8217;s mobility and forward pressure before the punching exchanges begin in earnest.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;I&#8217;m going to heavily rely on low kicks and boxing combinations. I need to chop down his base first,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Damaging his legs will take away his movement and prevent him from using his footwork to escape my pressure.&#8221;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="937" height="1024" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-23750" srcset="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg 937w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-274x300.jpg 274w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-768x840.jpg 768w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-600x656.jpg 600w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment.jpg 1189w" sizes="(max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><strong>SHOP: <a href="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/" title="">Kickboxing Equipment</a></strong> </figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The momentum behind Yodlekpet heading into Friday is real. A third-round finish of Gingsanglek Wor Kumchamnarn in his last outing, which was a high-tempo war that swung back and forth before Yodlekpet spotted the moment and took it, extended his winning run and sharpened his read on exactly when to press the accelerator.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;I noticed that he had broken teeth, and he was visibly hurting from a body shot to the stomach,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The moment I saw him wince, I stepped on the gas to finish the fight right then and there. When you see your opponent hurt, you have to go for the kill.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Four straight wins after a difficult patch have put the contract Yodlekpet has been chasing within reach. He has done the arithmetic on where a win over Saw Min Min leaves him.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;If you look at my last five fights, I&#8217;ve only dropped one, so I&#8217;m incredibly hungry to keep this winning streak alive and close the gap on that contract,&#8221; he said. &#8220;If I get the win this Friday, I reckon I&#8217;m only one or two fights away from securing it.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Kongchai Chanaidonmueang is chasing a US$100,000 ONE Championship contract. He also has a father in a hospital bed in Bangkok who has spent the last two to three months fighting a brain abscess. On Friday night, both of those things drive him into the main event at Lumpinee Stadium.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The former Rajadamnern Stadium Muay Thai World Champion faces Moldova&#8217;s Valerii Strungari in the strawweight Muay Thai main event of <a href="https://live.onefc.com/?utm_source=one_web&amp;utm_medium=partner">The Inner Circle</a> on Friday, June 5, live in Asia primetime from Bangkok, Thailand. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif.gif" alt="Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif" class="wp-image-13949"/></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Three consecutive wins, a 78-16 career record, and 17 appearances in ONE&#8217;s weekly series — more than any other fighter in the history of the series — have carried Kongchai to the closest he has ever been to a permanent roster spot.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The contract is within reach. The finish is what seals it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;If I can execute a flawless performance and put Valerii away, it puts me right back into the ONE main contract conversation,&#8221; Kongchai said. &#8220;I want to secure it this year. The strawweight division is packed with elite talent right now. If I pass this test, I want to start matching up against guys who already are on a ONE contract so I can prove I belong on that next tier.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Strungari is not a soft route to that destination. The Moldovan&#8217;s comeback knockout of Sanit Aekmuangnon at ONE Friday Fights 133 — absorbing two rounds of punishment before closing the show with a third-round finish that snapped Sanit&#8217;s four-fight winning streak — established him as a threat capable of hurting anyone who switches off for a single moment. Kongchai has studied both of his ONE appearances and arrived at a read that combines respect with clear-eyed tactical calculation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Valerii is incredibly durable and can take a shot. He&#8217;s tough as nails. His chin is solid, and he throws heavy punches. Even in his last loss, he looked decent,&#8221; Kongchai said. &#8220;I honestly think the only thing he lacks is good fight IQ and ring experience. I&#8217;ll need to rely on my power to break him down. I absolutely cannot afford to be complacent.&#8221;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="937" height="1024" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-23750" srcset="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg 937w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-274x300.jpg 274w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-768x840.jpg 768w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-600x656.jpg 600w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment.jpg 1189w" sizes="(max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><strong>SHOP: <a href="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/" title="">Kickboxing Equipment</a></strong> </figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Of Kongchai&#8217;s 11 promotional victories, only two have come inside the distance. He has identified that ratio as the gap that stands between him and the contract he wants, and the left kick he has been loading across camp is the instrument he plans to use to change it on Friday.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;The biggest issue I want to fix is that lack of a killer instinct. My finishing sequences just aren&#8217;t clinical enough,&#8221; he said. &#8220;If I step on the gas, throw heavy volume, and pressure him continuously, I don&#8217;t think he&#8217;ll be able to take it. My left kick is fully loaded, and I&#8217;m highly confident it will dismantle his durability.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The bonus that a finish would deliver sits behind everything else Kongchai is carrying into the ring this week. His father&#8217;s recovery has been the weight underneath every session in camp, and the possibility of bringing something home from Lumpinee on Friday that materially changes the family&#8217;s situation gives the fight a dimension that no contract or record can fully capture.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;This fight will show whether I&#8217;ve improved on seizing the finish,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Besides, I want a knockout and that bonus so badly this time because it will significantly help me take care of my dad. He&#8217;s been in the hospital for the last two to three months dealing with a brain abscess. All I want right now is to bring this victory back to him to boost his spirits so he can recover quickly.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><a href="https://live.onefc.com/?utm_source=one_web&amp;utm_medium=partner">The Inner Circle</a> returns to Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand on Friday, June 5, with five bouts across Muay Thai, kickboxing, and MMA, live in Asia primetime.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Two of ONE Friday Fights&#8217; most decorated veterans headline and co-headline a card that carries genuine stakes at the top and two unbeaten prospects colliding at the bottom.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif.gif" alt="Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif" class="wp-image-13949"/></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Kongchai Chanaidonmueang tops the bill in strawweight Muay Thai against Moldova&#8217;s Valerii Strungari. With 17 weekly series appearances to his name, which is more than any other fighter in ONE Friday Fights history, Kongchai arrives on a three-fight winning streak that has rebuilt the contract-chasing momentum he first established as a former Rajadamnern Stadium Muay Thai World Champion. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The question that has followed him throughout his ONE run is whether he can go for the finish when the opening presents itself. Strungari provides the test. The Moldovan is a high-volume forward-pressure fighter who swarmed Sanit Aekmuangnon with fast combinations in the third round of their ONE Friday Fights 133 clash to score a remarkable comeback knockout after being outclassed through the opening exchanges. He arrives at June 5 with that result behind him and a point to prove after dropping a decision to Denkriangkrai at ONE Friday Fights 148.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Jaosuayai Mor Krungthepthonburi co-headlines in flyweight kickboxing against China&#8217;s Yuan Pengjie. The contracted Sor Dechapan product is one of the most creative, unpredictable fighters in the weekly series. He&#8217;s a three-time bonus winner who knocked out Nakrob Fairtex with a first-round head kick at ONE Fight Night 32 and went the full distance with the legendary Sam-A Gaiyanghadao at ONE Friday Fights 137. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">His flying knees, spinning elbows, and sharp timing make him genuinely difficult to prepare for. Yuan brings a complete southpaw kickboxing arsenal and dangerous power hooks, but his tendency to lunge forward creates the kind of readable habits that a fighter of Jaosuayai&#8217;s IQ will be looking to exploit from the opening bell.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The card closes with its own compelling storyline. Julian Mayorga and Taiga Orii meet in bantamweight MMA — two unbeaten fighters who have finished every professional bout between them, putting perfect records on the line on a stage where the result will matter for both careers.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wp-block-paragraph">George &#8220;G-Unit&#8221; Jarvis does not need music to function. He can drive twenty minutes in complete silence and feel better for it. But when he does reach for his headphones in the gym, there is one name sitting at the top of the queue.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The WBC Muay Thai World Champion faces Rungrawee &#8220;Legatron&#8221; Sitsongpeenong in a lightweight Muay Thai rematch at <a href="https://www.onefc.com/events/onefightnight44/">ONE Fight Night 44 on Prime Video</a> on Friday, June 26, live in U.S. primetime from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. Camp is locked in, the noise of daily life has been stripped back, and French the Kid has been the soundtrack to every hard session.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif.gif" alt="Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif" class="wp-image-13949"/></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;When I train, I like rap music. Currently, French the Kid is at the top of my playlist,&#8221; Jarvis said. &#8220;He is a good friend of mine as well. He&#8217;s got good tunes, just something that gets you going. You don&#8217;t want to be training to some soft, romantic love songs. Some people do, but for me, I need a little heavier kind of music. Obviously, you can&#8217;t beat Tupac, Biggie Smalls, and that old-school stuff, but French the Kid&#8217;s vibes are new and modern.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The friendship between the 25-year-old Lumpini Crawley fighter and the British rapper — real name Taidgh Moriarty — was not built on music alone. They met through mutual contacts, stayed in regular contact over the years, and discovered a common thread that runs deeper than shared taste in sound. Jarvis is preparing to welcome his second child. French the Kid is also a family man. Two young men from different worlds, carrying the same weight.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;I met him through one of my pals, and I&#8217;ve just stayed in contact with him for the last few years,&#8221; Jarvis said. &#8220;He&#8217;s also a family man now, like me, so we&#8217;ve got a little bit in common. We both moan to each other sometimes about how hard it is and then go back to our day-to-day lives. He&#8217;s a good lad. We&#8217;ve met up a few times, just for the usual. Sometimes for walks, sometimes we go for dinner.&#8221;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="937" height="1024" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-23750" srcset="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg 937w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-274x300.jpg 274w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-768x840.jpg 768w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-600x656.jpg 600w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment.jpg 1189w" sizes="(max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><strong>SHOP: <a href="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/" title="">Kickboxing Equipment</a></strong> </figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">What keeps French the Kid&#8217;s music in rotation specifically is the quality of the writing beneath the energy. Jarvis has cycled through enough rap playlists to know exactly what he is looking for. He wants something that connects emotionally without becoming background noise or tripping over itself in content that pulls him out of the zone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;With some rappers, I feel you can&#8217;t really connect with them. They&#8217;re just rapping about street stuff and just kind of get lost in the lyrics,&#8221; Jarvis said. &#8220;He sings a little bit in his songs as well, and it&#8217;s just quite chill. A motivational thing. When you&#8217;re training, you don&#8217;t want cursing and all that. He&#8217;s got this unique style, where he is quite to the point when he raps.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A live show remains on the to-do list. For now, the only venue on Jarvis&#8217; calendar is Lumpinee Stadium on June 26, and the discipline that has carried him to a world championship and a Prime Video main event is the same discipline that keeps everything else on hold until the job is done.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;At the minute, it&#8217;s just the gym and then coming home, and then back to the gym. That&#8217;s about it,&#8221; he said. &#8220;After this fight, we can have a little bit more social time. I&#8217;m locked in.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Suriyanlek Por Yenying has been dropped, hurt, and taken to the edge in ONE Championship. He has never stopped. When his coach Moses told him to go out in the final round against Gregor Thom and leave everything in the ring, Suriyanlek bit down on his mouthpiece, walked through the damage, scored a knockdown of his own, and won. That is the fighter Ramadan Ondash is walking into on Friday night.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The veteran Thai faces Ramadan &#8220;The Scorpion&#8221; Ondash in flyweight Muay Thai at <a href="https://live.onefc.com/?utm_source=one_web&amp;utm_medium=partner">The Inner Circle</a> on Friday, May 29, live in Asia primetime from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif.gif" alt="Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif" class="wp-image-13949"/></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;When I went back to my corner before the final round, Coach Moses told me, &#8216;You&#8217;ve got nothing to lose now. Go out there, leave it all in the ring, and just close the distance,'&#8221; Suriyanlek said. &#8220;So, I bit down on my mouthpiece, moved forward, and went completely all-out until I managed to score a knockdown back and secure the win.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">That mentality has driven an 86-31 career and 11 ONE Championship wins. He has never been put away, and the fuel that keeps him standing when lesser fighters would quit comes from something deeper than ambition alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Every time I step into that ring, I always tell myself that unless they put me completely to sleep, I am not going down,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I&#8217;m always thinking about my family and the people back home who support me.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ramadan arrives as a 19-year-old contracted ONE Championship athlete making his flyweight debut, dropping a weight class after his first professional loss and stepping into a division he has never competed in before. Suriyanlek has spent his entire career absorbing flyweight power. He knows precisely what Ramadan is about to feel for the first time, and he is looking forward to introducing him to it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;I was actually a bit surprised that he decided to move up to flyweight because he&#8217;s going to face much heavier impact and power here,&#8221; Suriyanlek said. &#8220;I&#8217;m used to the power in this division, and I&#8217;m confident I can take his best shot. He&#8217;s about to get a proper welcome to the division with my signature &#8216;wild buffalo punch.&#8217; Once it lands, we&#8217;ll see if he can take it.&#8221;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="937" height="1024" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-23750" srcset="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg 937w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-274x300.jpg 274w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-768x840.jpg 768w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-600x656.jpg 600w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment.jpg 1189w" sizes="(max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><strong>SHOP: <a href="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/" title="">Kickboxing Equipment</a></strong> </figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The scouting report Suriyanlek has assembled on Ramadan combines genuine respect for the teenager&#8217;s tools with a precise identification of the weakness that the flyweight environment will expose. Fast hands and heavy early output are real threats, but Ramadan&#8217;s gas tank and emotional discipline have both been tested in recent outings and found wanting under sustained pressure.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Ramadan has great footwork, and his hands are really fast and heavy. But his arsenal isn&#8217;t that versatile yet, and he doesn&#8217;t manage his gas tank well,&#8221; Suriyanlek said. &#8220;He fights too much on emotion, which makes him visibly fade toward the end of the rounds. He&#8217;s definitely going to come out swinging from the opening bell. And me? I&#8217;m absolutely ready to trade with him. I&#8217;ve never been afraid of anyone when it comes to going blow-for-blow.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The contract he has been chasing through eleven promotional wins is within reach of one good night. Suriyanlek does not intend to leave it to the judges.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;I honestly don&#8217;t see any scenario where it goes to the judges&#8217; scorecards. In fact, I think there&#8217;s a high chance it ends in the very first round,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Getting that ONE contract would truly be a dream come true.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Jonathan Haggerty was ringside when Freddie beat Yonis Anane at <a href="https://live.onefc.com/?utm_source=one_web&amp;utm_medium=partner">The Inner Circle</a> on May 22. He was also the one in the corner, calling shots between rounds, watching his younger brother execute a game plan they had built together across weeks of preparation. When the unanimous decision was announced, the satisfaction ran deep.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Freddie controlled three rounds of strawweight Muay Thai with calf kicks at range, clean counters, and forward pressure that never allowed the WBC Muay Thai World Champion to settle. It was a technical performance, measured and composed, and Jonathan&#8217;s assessment of it reflected both the pride and the honesty of a coach who holds his fighter to the highest possible standard.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif.gif" alt="Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif" class="wp-image-13949"/></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;It was a technical fight. He was technical, Freddie was technical, and I believed Freddie got the unanimous decision,&#8221; Jonathan said. &#8220;It was a good performance coming up against a great opponent. The Anane brothers are great fighters — he&#8217;s a WBC World Champion, but Freddie trained hard for this one.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The eight out of ten rating Jonathan assigned to the performance was deliberate. Freddie controlled the fight without finding the finish, and for a champion who knows precisely what a knockout statement delivers on the global stage, the difference between those two outcomes matters.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;I&#8217;d give him an eight because I know he could have knocked him out. But I feel like he just went in with a bit of a technical version of himself,&#8221; Jonathan said. &#8220;If he had knocked him out, I&#8217;d give him a ten. We&#8217;re over the moon with the win, and onto the next one.&#8221;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="937" height="1024" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-23750" srcset="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg 937w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-274x300.jpg 274w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-768x840.jpg 768w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-600x656.jpg 600w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment.jpg 1189w" sizes="(max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><strong>SHOP: <a href="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/" title="">Kickboxing Equipment</a></strong> </figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">With Freddie&#8217;s victory processed and filed, Jonathan&#8217;s attention turns immediately to his own ambitions. He already defended his ONE Bantamweight Kickboxing World Title twice, most recently against Yuki Yoza at ONE SAMURAI 1 in April. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The belt he wants back is the one he lost to Superlek at ONE 168 in Denver. Rambolek Chor Ajalaboon holds it now after defeating Nabil Anane in March, and Jonathan&#8217;s interest in the matchup is plain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;I want the Muay Thai World Title. That belt means a lot to me. I want to win it again,&#8221; Jonathan said. &#8220;Rambolek has got the belt, and I also want to defend my belt against the number one in the division in kickboxing. Maybe Akimoto — we&#8217;ll just have to wait and see.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">His message for Rambolek, when asked, carried the kind of clarity that does not require elaboration.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Let&#8217;s just fight,&#8221; Jonathan said. &#8220;May the best man win.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><a href="https://www.onefc.com/events/one-friday-fights-156/">ONE Friday Fights 156</a> returns to Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand this Friday, May 29, live in Asia primetime, with nine bouts across Muay Thai, kickboxing, and MMA. Every athlete on the card is hunting a US$100,000 contract and a permanent place on ONE&#8217;s global roster.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Kongsuk Sitsarawatsuer headlines in bantamweight Muay Thai against Uzbekistani debutant Khakimov Anisjon. The 25-year-old Kongsuk is one of the most decorated veterans to have competed in the weekly series. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif.gif" alt="Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif" class="wp-image-13949"/></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">He was introduced to Muay Thai by his grandfather at the age of 10, went on to claim two Lumpinee Stadium World Titles, and earned a performance bonus at ONE Friday Fights 146 with a statement stoppage. A three-fight winning streak has placed him within reach of the contract he has been building toward throughout his run, and Anisjon arrives as a physically imposing forward-pressure fighter whose straight right and powerful body kicks have made him a dangerous debutant on paper.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The co-main event pairs Lumpinee Stadium Muay Thai World Champion Mongkoldetlek Por Pim-on against Russian Tiger Muay Thai product Ruslan Tuktarov in a second bantamweight Muay Thai contest. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Mongkoldetlek&#8217;s counter-striking, precise kick timing, and suffocating clinch work have made him one of the weekly series&#8217; most technically accomplished performers, while Tuktarov arrives with a 14-3 record and the footwork-based, accurate counter game of a fighter who has spent serious time learning from world-class training partners in Phuket.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The rest of the card delivers Petmuangsri Torfunfarm against Cape Verde&#8217;s Diogo Miguel Silva in flyweight kickboxing. Songpandin Chor Kaewwiset meets Guanyu Sor Ratchanikul at flyweight, Singharat SitKhuntab takes on Italy&#8217;s Vincenzo Esposito at bantamweight, and Payak Saksatoon faces Tandiao Por Prawit in atomweight Muay Thai. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Petbangsaray and Wanchana Bomuangpan run it back in a bantamweight rematch, India&#8217;s Monjit Yein meets Tajikistan&#8217;s Parviz Khamidzhonov in strawweight MMA, and Japan&#8217;s Yoshida Kosei opens the card against Vietnam&#8217;s Hoang Gia Dai in flyweight kickboxing.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Denkriangkrai Mavinn Muaythai has done the math. A win over a fighter who already holds a ONE Championship main roster contract is not just a sixth straight victory. It&#8217;s a shortcut straight to the front of the queue.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The 27-year-old Thai strawweight faces Abdallah Ondash at <a href="https://live.onefc.com/?utm_source=one_web&amp;utm_medium=partner">The Inner Circle</a> on Friday, May 29, live in Asia primetime from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. He arrives on a five-fight winning streak, carrying the kind of momentum that makes the US$100,000 contract he has been chasing feel closer than ever. He also carries the kind of clarity about what this specific fight means that sharpens everything in camp.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif.gif" alt="Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif" class="wp-image-13949"/></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;Riding a five-fight winning streak has my confidence through the roof,&#8221; Denkriangkrai said. &#8220;My goal for this year is crystal clear: I want that ONE Championship main roster contract. That&#8217;s what&#8217;s driving me to keep leveling up my performance fight after fight. This one will come down to who wants it more because I know we&#8217;re both prepared.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The one figure that sits uncomfortably in Denkriangkrai&#8217;s promotional record is his stoppage rate. Of 62 career wins, only one has come inside the distance in ONE Championship. It was a 51-second knockout of Sanpet Sor Salacheep. His technical style, built on crisp counter-punching, sharp clinch work, and ring generalship, has won fights convincingly but rarely dramatically. He is not satisfied with that ratio, and camp has been focused on changing it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;I know the power is there. For this fight, it&#8217;s just about fine-tuning my accuracy and hitting the exact sweet spots,&#8221; he said. &#8220;When you&#8217;re wearing those 4-ounce gloves, anyone can go down if you land cleanly.&#8221;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="937" height="1024" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-23750" srcset="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg 937w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-274x300.jpg 274w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-768x840.jpg 768w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-600x656.jpg 600w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment.jpg 1189w" sizes="(max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><strong>SHOP: <a href="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/" title="">Kickboxing Equipment</a></strong> </figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Abdallah brings a three-fight knockout streak, a left hook that has ended nights at every level he has competed at, and the kind of chaotic forward aggression that disrupts fighters who need clean exchanges to operate. Denkriangkrai has studied him thoroughly and arrived at a precise read and even more precise concern.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;I have to watch out for Abdallah&#8217;s left hook — that&#8217;s his signature weapon. Aside from that, he has terrifyingly fast combinations,&#8221; he said. &#8220;He&#8217;s also incredibly durable, always ready to press forward, and he fights with this wild, chaotic aggression that makes him a real handful.&#8221;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The answer to that aggression is not to match it. It&#8217;s to stay composed, control the range, and wait for the opening that Denkriangkrai believes Abdallah&#8217;s forward-marching style will eventually create. His experience advantage over a 24-year-old in only his ninth ONE appearance is the lever he plans to pull when the fight gets complicated.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">&#8220;My biggest advantage in this fight is my experience. I firmly believe my ring generalship and fight IQ are superior, and I&#8217;m going to use that to dismantle him,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Getting a finish over a guy who already holds a main roster contract takes it to a completely different level. If I can knock him out, it&#8217;s going to skyrocket my name. It&#8217;ll feel like skipping two steps up the ladder at once.&#8221;</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The result was announced, the debate immediately started, and it has not stopped since. On August 7, the only argument that matters gets settled inside the ring.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Abdulla &#8220;Smash Boy&#8221; Dayakaev and &#8220;The Kicking Machine&#8221; Superlek are confirmed for a bantamweight Muay Thai rematch at <a href="https://live.onefc.com/?utm_source=one_web&amp;utm_medium=partner">The Inner Circle</a> on Friday, August 7, live in Asia primetime from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="750" height="500" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif.gif" alt="Sidekick-Boxing-Official-Gif" class="wp-image-13949"/></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Their first meeting on May 15 produced everything a high-stakes Muay Thai clash should and ended in the kind of split-decision result that makes a rematch feel not just justified but necessary. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Dayakaev dropped Superlek with a thunderous right hand inside the opening minute, sending a shockwave through Lumpinee and taking a deficit the Thai legend spent the remaining nine minutes trying to overcome. He very nearly did. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Superlek dominated the second and third rounds, attacking with knees in the clinch and pouring forward pressure onto a man who had just knocked him down, but the damage from that first-round knockdown proved too costly when the scorecards were read. Two judges sided with Dayakaev. The third sided with Superlek. The room erupted in both directions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For Dayakaev, a second consecutive victory over a fighter of Superlek&#8217;s calibre would do more than silence the critics who questioned the first decision. It would establish the 24-year-old Dagestan-born striker as a genuinely elite-level name at 135 pounds, and put him squarely in the conversation for the ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Title. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="937" height="1024" src="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-23750" srcset="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-937x1024.jpg 937w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-274x300.jpg 274w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-768x840.jpg 768w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment-600x656.jpg 600w, https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Sidekick-Kickboxing-Equipment.jpg 1189w" sizes="(max-width: 937px) 100vw, 937px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption"><strong>SHOP: <a href="https://sidekickboxing.co.uk/" title="">Kickboxing Equipment</a></strong> </figcaption></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">His record has been built on heavy hands and the kind of pressure that forces opponents into uncomfortable exchanges, and Superlek now knows from experience exactly how much punishment that right hand carries.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The stakes are considerably higher for Superlek. The 30-year-old Superlek Muaythai representative carries a 139-32 career record into August 7, but three consecutive losses have cast an unfamiliar shadow over a career that once seemed completely untouchable. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">A defeat here would deepen that shadow considerably. A win, by any method, changes the narrative entirely and forces a third fight that the division&#8217;s bantamweight landscape would immediately organise itself around.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Two months of preparation separate both men from a night that delivers a definitive answer to the question the first fight left open.</p>
