3 Bouts That Could Steal The Show At ONE Friday Fights 147
ONE Friday Fights has never been short on action. Week after week, Lumpinee Stadium has played host to some of the most thrilling battles in all of combat sports.
At ONE Friday Fights 147 on March 20, airing live in Asia primetime, we could see the most action-packed edition yet.
The most elite level of competition will once again be on full display, anchored by two massive World Title showdowns. The night’s marquee attraction will pit Thai legend Nong-O Hama against undefeated Russian demolisher Asadula Imangazaliev for the vacant ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Title.
Then, in the evening’s featured bout, ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion Nabil Anane will put his 26 pounds of gold on the line against surging challenger Rambolek Chor Ajalaboon.
Beyond the prestige of the ONE World Title, the supporting card is also loaded with some of the most explosive finishers in the promotion.
With that in mind, here are three bouts worth keeping a close eye on at ONE Friday Fights 147.
#1 Seksan Vs. Pakorn
The wait is finally over. A long-anticipated trilogy between Seksan “The Man Who Yields To No One” Or Kwanmuang and Pakorn PK Sialaytentmungkorn was hampered by injury, but the delay has only sharpened the appetite for this bantamweight collision.
The two battle-tested veterans have each claimed a victory over the other outside the promotion, leaving their rivalry unresolved for years. This third meeting offers the chance to settle matters between them once and for all.
Seksan has never been in a dull fight. Win or lose, the 37-year-old brings an indomitable spirit into the ring every single time, backed by a legendary chin and heavy hands that keep him dangerous until the final bell.
Those qualities have earned him 10 victories in the world’s largest martial arts organization, and a place among Muay Thai’s most beloved figures. Three straight losses, however, have lit a fire under the Thai veteran, and he arrives desperate to announce his return to form in emphatic fashion.
On the other side of the equation, Pakorn brings the veteran savvy and technical precision to match Seksan’s chaos. The 35-year-old thrives in the trenches, but he is not just a brawler. He demonstrated the surgical side of his game with a commanding unanimous decision win over Suablack Tor Pran49 at ONE Friday Fights 137, proving there is method to the mayhem.
When two warriors with this much history collide in an important tiebreaker, spectacular is the only outcome.
#2 Jaosuayai Vs. Pompet
Hunger and opportunity meet when Jaosuayai Mor Krungthepthonburi steps into the ring looking to reclaim his footing at Pompet PongSuphan PK‘s expense.
Few fighters announced themselves on the ONE Friday Fights series quite like Jaosuayai. The Sor Dechapan product was one of the weekly circuit’s biggest revelations, building a 7-2 record to earn a life-changing six-figure contract.
He carried that momentum onto the global stage, announcing his U.S. primetime debut with a stunning first-round knockout of Nakrob Fairtex at ONE Fight Night 32 in June 2025. Not long after, a five-fight winning streak had him knocking on the door of World Title contention.
However, a close decision loss to Akif “King” Guluzada last October halted the charge. His subsequent move to strawweight against two-sport, two-division World Champion Sam-A Gaiyanghadao yielded a second straight defeat. Now, the 24-year-old returns to flyweight with unfinished business.
Pompet, however, has been a consistent presence in the weekly crucible, amassing seven victories. Despite those impressive showings, inconsistency has plagued the 27-year-old, and a recent loss to Decho Por Borirak snapped a two-fight winning streak.
The danger is considerable, but so is the reward. Pompet needs a signature victory to move closer to that elusive US$100,000 contract, while Jaosuayai is desperate for the win to reshape his World Title dreams.
#3 Gingsanglek Vs. Yodlekpet
On a night headlined by megastars, Gingsanglek Wor Kumchamnarn and Yodlekpet “The Destroyer” Or Atchariya could be the ones who leave Lumpinee Stadium with the loudest impression. Both are gunslingers by nature, and their parallel journeys through adversity make this flyweight Muay Thai clash one to watch.
Gingsanglek endured a painful 1-4 start on ONE Friday Fights before making the adjustments that turned his career around.
Back-to-back first-round stoppages over established foes Alexey Balyko and Thant Zin signaled a new chapter for the 24-year-old, and a composed unanimous decision over Suriyanlek Por Yenying extended his winning streak to three.
Yodlekpet, meanwhile, has long been knocking on the door of that six-figure contract but has yet to push it open. The four-time Muay Thai World Champion possesses dynamite in both hands, evidenced by a highlight reel full of savage finishes.
His last outing against Anar Mammadov showed a more patient, measured side of his game, a sign that “The Destroyer” is evolving without losing his edge.
Two fighters forged by setbacks, armed with fan-friendly styles and finishing power — this fight has all the ingredients to light up Lumpinee Stadium.
