‘I’m Fast, I’m Fresh, And I’m Ready To Trade’ – Kompet And Attachai Target Breakthrough Wins In ONE Friday Fights 150 Main Event
Right after The Inner Circle ignites Lumpinee Stadium on April 10, two Thai strawweight Muay Thai contenders will chase a pivotal win when Kompet Sitsarawatsuer meets Attachai Kelasport in the main event of ONE Friday Fights 150.
The bout goes down in Asia primetime in Bangkok, Thailand, where both men have a chance to make a splash in a talent-rich division.
It is a compelling all-Thai matchup between a seasoned fighter looking to reassert himself and a hungry young striker chasing his first life-changing moment.
They have taken very different roads to this point, but both know a strong performance could change everything.
Kompet Aims To Turn Hard Lessons Into A Statement Win
Kompet Sitsarawatsuer entered ONE with elite credentials, but his promotional run has tested his patience and adaptability.
After stumbling in his debut against reigning ONE Strawweight Muay Thai World Champion Prajanchai PK Saenchai, he found his rhythm with five straight victories in the ONE Friday Fights series.
That run moved the 26-year-old closer to a coveted six-figure contract, but momentum didn’t last. He has lost three of his last five bouts, forcing himself to confront the inconsistency that has slowed his climb.
He said:
“It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster lately with the wins and losses, and I’ll admit I feel a little pressure. I want to build some real momentum. I used to be laser-focused on a ONE main roster contract, but now I feel like I’ve drifted quite a bit from that goal.
“I’m stoked to be back and prove I can handle the small gloves. A lot of people think this style isn’t for me, but I’m here to show them they’re wrong.”
Now he chases his 91st career win against a dangerous opponent. He knows Attachai’s southpaw style presents a difficult test for a pressure fighter who likes to work inside.
The Sitsarawatsuer representative is confident he can solve the mirror-stance challenge. He also credited teammate and fellow ONE athlete Kongsuk Sitsarawatsuer, a southpaw himself, for helping mimic that look in training.
The two-time Lumpinee Stadium Muay Thai World Champion said:
“As for Atthachai, he’s young and fresh with a sharp left hand, but I’ve been through much tougher wars and have way more experience.
“I know people see him as the rising star, but I’m not going to be his stepping stone. I’m here to stop his momentum.”
Those setbacks have pushed him to focus on the finer details that decide close fights. He wants to sustain his output and close stronger — two areas that have let him down in recent losses.
He said:
“My trainers have been drilling me on being more decisive. I have the weapons, I just need to find the right openings.
“I really want to develop more of a killer instinct. My movement and timing are fine, but I’m missing that finishing touch. I need to be much more clinical when that ‘golden minute’ arrives.”
Attachai Sees Veteran Test As The Perfect Chance To Make His Mark
With a unanimous decision win over Poye Adsanpatong at ONE Friday Fights 66 last year, Attachai Kelasport showcased his technical precision and composure on the global stage.
Since then, the Thai Army staff sergeant has balanced military duties and training, and that stretch away from competition has only added intrigue to his sophomore appearance.
Now back under the bright lights, the 23-year-old is ready to reveal a more complete version of himself:
“My debut win against Poye was my first time in small gloves. I was nervous and probably should’ve been more aggressive, but I won because I was more precise. It made me hungry for more.
“I’ve learned a lot from my first win. I need to be more consistent and aggressive. I want to prove to everyone that I’m an exciting fighter who belongs on this stage.”
That debut win put him on a collision course with one of the division’s most respected names. Kompet is admired for his all-action style and championship credentials, and Attachai has made no secret of that respect.
Admiration will not make him hesitant in the ring, though. The young southpaw is confident he can create clean openings against a forward-marching opponent.
He said:
“When I heard I was fighting Kompetch, I was so excited. It’s an honor to fight someone like him. He’s been a star since I first arrived in Bangkok. He’s got the accolades and six belts, but in three-round fights with small gloves, anything can happen.
“I’ve studied him, and I think he leaves himself open sometimes. If I see a gap, I’m letting my hands go. I’m not worried about his experience — I’m fast, I’m fresh, and I’m ready to trade.”
Attachai brings a 51-10 record into this opportunity, looking to show steady growth and prove he belongs on the path toward the main roster.
He said:
“I want to keep leveling up my performance to prove that I have what it takes to eventually step up to the main ONE stage. Every fight has to be an improvement.
“I’m not intimidated by Kompetch’s reputation or accolades at all. I’m ready to keep this winning streak alive in the [ring].”
