ONE Championship Announces Full Card For ONE Friday Fights 130
Nontachai Jitmuangnon used Muay Thai training as cover for sneaking off to internet cafes until the day his father showed up at the gym expecting to watch him work, forcing the teenager to sprint back and pretend he’d been there all along in a moment of panic that accidentally transformed his entire life.
The 26-year-old already-contracted Thai star headlines ONE Friday Fights 130 on October 24 against Turkey’s Soner Sen inside Bangkok’s legendary Lumpinee Stadium, where two fighters whose martial arts journeys rescued them from difficult circumstances collide in bantamweight action.
That embarrassing encounter with his father sparked genuine passion rather than continued deception. Nontachai fell in love with striking after moving to Bangkok and witnessing the dedication of elite teammates at Jitmuangnon Gym, eventually capturing the 2023 Road to ONE: Thailand tournament while building his 50-22 record through legitimate commitment to the sport he once avoided.
Sen carries his own transformation story built on martial arts salvation. The 29-year-old started training as an overweight kid searching for confidence, discovering through Muay Thai the self-belief that completely changed his trajectory. Now a multiple-time Turkish national champion with over 200 fights and a 24-11 record, “Golden Boy” has dedicated his life toward becoming the world’s best.
The co-main event could deliver redemption as contracted powerhouse Songchainoi Kiatsongrit faces Myanmar’s Salai Htan Khee Shein in atomweight Muay Thai combat. The 25-year-old Thai striker carries fresh wounds from his nine-fight winning streak being snapped, costing him a shot at the inaugural ONE Atomweight Muay Thai World Title at ONE 173 in Tokyo.
Salai Htan Khee Shein represents the eldest son of a six-member farming family who helped with agricultural work before discovering boxing at 12. The 21-year-old moved to Yangon pursuing Lethwei dreams while fighting to provide for his family who struggle feeding themselves daily, inspired by fellow Myanmar fighters’ ONE Championship success.
The card also features emotional storylines including Sonrak Fairtex, who used bonus money to build a house in Laos reuniting his fractured family, and undefeated New Zealand sensation Titus Proctor, raised in foster care after being born into a broken family before channeling his energy into devastating knockout power.
