Abdallah Ondash Targets Knockout Of Singdomthong At ONE Friday Fights 112: ‘Will Push Me To The Top’

Hard-hitting Lebanese striker Abdallah Ondash thinks Singdomthong Nokjeanladkrabang is in for an unpleasant surprise this Friday, June 13, when they meet in a 127-pound Muay Thai clash in the main event of ONE Friday Fights 112.

Set to go down at the legendary Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, that matchup could be either man’s chance to secure a coveted six-figure contract and a place on ONE’s global roster.

The 23-year-old Ondash has been nearly flawless over the course of his thrilling six-fight run at ONE Friday Fights, losing just one time by majority decision to respected veteran Chokpreecha PK Saenchai.

For his part, Singdomthong has experienced a similar level of success, setting the stage for an epic showdown between two of Muay Thai’s most exciting rising stars.

While Ondash has plenty of respect for his Thai adversary and the wealth of elite-level experience he’ll bring to the battle, he told onefc.com that Singdomthong has never faced a striker like him:

“Singdomthong has won six out of seven and lost one fight by the smallest of margins. He is a good fighter and has lots of accolades, including the WMC and IFMA belts. I watched him fight. He is a technical fighter.

“But he has not fought me yet. He has not fought an Arab yet. Fighting Thais is one thing. Fighting an international fighter is another.”

Now splitting his training between his home gym in Lebanon and the famed Tiger Muay Thai in Thailand, Ondash possesses an explosive, heavy-handed style that’s been an incredibly difficult puzzle to solve – and has earned him a trio of highlight-reel stoppages in ONE.

But beyond his show-stopping power, Ondash is a true student of the game.

He’s analyzed Singdomthong’s style, identified his most dangerous weapons, and devised a path to victory that he’ll only reveal at ONE Friday Fights 112:

“His biggest strength is that he moves a lot and works the legs. His weakness? You will see that inside the ring. I will keep it a surprise.”

Never one to talk trash or predict an easy knockout, Ondash is keeping his cards close to his chest and his mind open as to what might unfold at Lumpinee Stadium.

After an arduous training camp that focused largely on his physical conditioning, he promises to perform at his peak against Singdomthong.

And no matter what happens, he’s prepared to move forward – whether that means a US$100,000 contract or going back to the drawing board:

“I will fight as I always do. I want to win. If I lose, I will learn from it. If I win, it will mean that I have progressed. If I win by knockout, it will push me to the top. For sure, I will do my best.”

Ondash Has Revenge On His Mind

Abdallah Ondash has lost just two times in his professional career. His most recent defeat came last summer at ONE Friday Fights 70, where he dropped a closely contested decision to 129-fight veteran Chokpreecha PK Saenchai.

Looking back on that bout, the Lebanese fighter said his performance was an anomaly, that he simply wasn’t at his best.

He also knows the loss stalled his climb toward winning a spot on ONE’s global roster:

“I suffered an illness the same day as my fight [against Chokpreecha]. I won the next fight by knockout. So, if I had won that fight, even if by decision, I would have gotten the contract. But I am just focusing on my next fight. I want to win.”

Ondash is certainly focused on Singdomthong Nokjeanladkrabang, but looking ahead, he’s hungry to prove that his loss to Chokpreecha was a fluke.

After ONE Friday Fights 112, his intentions are clear:

“I want to face Chokpreecha in a rematch. I want to end that story.”
