ONE Fight Night 42 Adds Jordan Estupinan Vs. Aslamjon Ortikov, Hiroba Minowa Vs. Karen Ghazaryan

Jordan Estupinan vs. Aslamjon Ortikov

ONE Fight Night 42 on Prime Video just got bigger with two more explosive matchups.

Colombian sensation Jordan “Panda Kick” Estupinan will square off against unbeaten Uzbek destroyer Aslamjon Ortikov in a flyweight Muay Thai bout, while Japanese veteran Hiroba Minowa will meet undefeated Armenian promotional newcomer Karen Ghazaryan in a strawweight MMA clash.

The event will broadcast live in U.S. primetime from Bangkok’s iconic Lumpinee Stadium on Friday, April 10, and it promises to be electric.

Estupinan enters the flyweight Muay Thai contest with a 9-1 career record and a 2-1 promotional slate.

Known for his aggressive and flashy style, the 23-year-old Colombian southpaw made an impressive ONE debut against Freddie Haggerty, younger brother of ONE Bantamweight Kickboxing World Champion Jonathan “The General” Haggerty, in January 2025.

“Panda Kick” claimed a unanimous decision that evening, snapping the Englishman’s winning streak and announcing his arrival on the global stage. Months later, he added another victory to his resume by defeating Russian striker Ali Saldoev.

However, Estupinan’s momentum hit a roadblock when he faced Japanese sensation Hyu Iwata last September, as he suffered the first blemish of his professional career. The Colombian looks to return to winning ways at ONE Fight Night 42, but that will be easier said than done.

Standing across from him is the perfect challenge.

The 23-year-old Ortikov, who represents TC Muaythai and Sport Club Shakhriyor in Uzbekistan, holds a flawless 23-0 career record. He has maintained that perfection through his ONE Championship campaign, registering nine victories in the world’s largest martial arts organization including four finishes.

Ortikov is a well-rounded striker who has proven his ability to defeat opponents by decision or knockout, demonstrating the versatility that makes him one of the flyweight Muay Thai division’s most dangerous contenders.

A victory over Estupinan would extend his streak and could position him for future ONE World Title opportunities.

Before that, Minowa will attempt to return to the win column in one of the promotion’s busiest mixed martial arts divisions.

Minowa, a former Shooto Strawweight Champion, began his ONE tenure impressively with huge victories over Filipino phenom Lito “Thunder Kid” Adiwang and former ONE Strawweight MMA World Champion Alex “Little Rock” Silva, establishing him as a legitimate threat to the gold.

However, following those statement wins, the 27-year-old Japanese grappler went through a rough phase that’s tested his resolve. Now, he seeks to recapture the form that made him such a top-flight competitor early in his ONE career.

But his opponent, Ghazaryan, enters the tilt on an incredible run.

The 24-year-old hails from Gavar, Armenia, representing Shahmuradyan Fight Club with a pristine 5-0 career record. More impressively, all five victories have come via stoppage, where he showcased his finishing power against every opponent he has ever faced.

Ghazaryan’s perfect record and 100 percent finishing rate make him one of the strawweight MMA division’s most dangerous undefeated newcomers, and he’ll look to maintain that status against experienced opposition.
