ONE Friday Fights 149 Co-Main Event Result: Isannuea Flattens Khunpon With Pulverizing Body Shot

Isannuea Sor Sasiwat Khunpon Aekmuangnon ONE Friday Fights 149 6

Isannuea Sor Sasiwat needed less than three minutes to put away Khunpon Aekmuangnon, dropping the Thai with a devastating body shot KO at 2:23 of round one in the co-main event of ONE Friday Fights 149, live in Asia primetime, on April 3 at Bangkok’s Lumpinee Stadium.

Isannuea stalked his opponent from the opening bell like a predator with a locked target, trailing Khunpon around the ring and whipping punches at him from every angle in this flyweight Muay Thai duel.

The 20-year-old backed up and found early comfort in his left kick, snapping it into Isannuea’s guard as a counter to slow the incoming punches before growing bolder and deploying it as a weapon of his own.

It proved a costly habit. Isannuea clocked the pattern, waited for the kick to come, and timed his moment perfectly. He let rip a left body hook that crashed into Khunpon’s ribcage like a wrecking ball and sent him crumpling to the canvas, unable to continue.

With the finish, Isannuea earned his 50th win, recording back-to-back KO victories and sending a statement to the rest of the flyweight division.
