‘I Am Hungrier Than Ever’ – Gingsanglek Eyes Redemption Against Dmitri Ramos At The Inner Circle 26
Setbacks are nothing new to Gingsanglek Wor Kumchamnarn, and neither is the hunger that carries him past them.
He returns with a renewed focus for his bantamweight Muay Thai co-main event clash against American newcomer Dmitri Ramos at The Inner Circle 26. The entire card will stream live in Asia primetime from Bangkok’s renowned Lumpinee Stadium this Friday, August 14, exclusively for subscribers at live.onefc.com.
That evening, the Thai finisher will seek a return to the win column after a knockout loss to four-time Muay Thai World Champion Yodlekpet “The Destroyer” Or Atchariya, which halted a three-fight winning streak that included destructive first-round finishes over Thant Zin and Alexey Balyko.
Rather than let that setback linger, Gingsanglek has channeled the disappointment into motivation as he aims to take another significant stride in his bid to secure the life-changing US$100,000 main roster contract.
The 25-year-old said:
“It was a really disappointing result. Building a three-fight winning streak only to stumble on the fourth was tough. But returning to the gym and having supportive teammates helped me refocus and train just as hard as before.
“Now, I am hungrier than ever for a victory. I have drilled my signature moves and prepared a few surprises in camp, which fans will definitely see on full display.”
That mention of surprises hints at just how deep Gingsanglek’s preparation has gone for this camp, extending well beyond his own game plan and into a full breakdown of the man standing across from him.
Despite Ramos representing a completely fresh matchup on the global stage, the Thai has left no detail unexamined ahead of a fight that could push him to the 46th win of his career.
The PK Saenchai Muaythaigym athlete continued:
“I have studied his footage. He is a southpaw who likes to press forward, throw combinations, chop legs, and force an aggressive pace. I actually enjoy fighting brawlers, so if he wants to march forward, that plays right into my hands.”
Confident as he sounds about how the stylistic matchup favors him, Gingsanglek is careful not to let that translate into complacency. History has taught him better than to overlook anyone, after all.
Every fighter who steps into the ONE Friday Fights series has already cleared a high bar just to get there. As such, he refuses to let outside chatter about the matchup shape how seriously he prepares for it.
Gingsanglek added:
“For people viewing him as a newcomer or calling me a heavy favorite, I want to say that there are no easy fights inside the ring. If he wasn’t a legitimate fighter, he would not be sharing the ring with me. I am not taking him lightly at all.”
Science Fuels Gingsanglek’s Return
Beyond the respect and the surprises he has planned for The Inner Circle 26, Gingsanglek has also overhauled his own approach to preparation. A noticeably transformed physique now backs up a level of dedication the 25-year-old insists is a far cry from where he once stood.
That shift did not happen by accident. As more fighters embrace a science-backed approach to their careers, Gingsanglek has treated every day, whether a fight is scheduled or not, as a chance to sharpen his body and his craft.
He shared:
“I realized I only have a few fight years left in my career, so I need to give absolute dedication to this current window.
“I stay consistent with training, weightlifting, fitness routines, nutrition, and proper rest. My discipline regarding health and preparation is night and day compared to before.”
Where raw talent alone might have carried him in years past, Gingsanglek now sees his conditioning and physical development as the genuine equalizer heading into this pivotal co-main event showdown.
It is the kind of edge that does not show up on a highlight reel, but one he trusts to hold up against Ramos and every opponent who follows in ONE Championship.
The Thai said:
“I will give it 100 percent. Fitness and sports science build crucial muscle mass and overall strength. My strikes hit much harder now, and the added muscle layer absorbs impact better.
“[Having more muscle mass] also protects my bones and reduces damage when I trade (shots). While I am in much better shape than before, I believe I can still elevate my game further.”
