Singdomthong Says Abdallah Ondash ‘Can’t Take Heavy Punches’ Ahead Of Matchup At ONE Friday Fights 112
Surging Thai striker Singdomthong Nokjeanladkrabang is eager to impress in his main event clash with Lebanese phenom Abdallah Ondash at ONE Friday Fights 112.
The elite strikers will throw down in Asia primetime on June 13 in an intriguing 127-pound Muay Thai matchup at the historic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
With seven appearances and six victories at ONE Friday Fights, Singdomthong has emerged as one of the top talents at the weekly series and a front-runner to receive a coveted US$100,000 contract with ONE’s main roster.
He’ll also come into his bout with Ondash on a three-fight winning streak.
The Thai is aware of the massive opportunity before him at ONE Friday Fights 112 and is prepared to put his best foot forward. He told onefc.com:
“I feel incredibly proud of myself for being able to climb up and become a main event fighter on a global stage.
“This is another step forward for me. I’m excited to be the most anticipated fight of the night for the fans. I tell myself I have to do my best because everyone is waiting to watch and cheer me on.”
Singdomthong knows he’s in for a dangerous challenge. After all, the 23-year-old Ondash boasts a near-flawless professional record and has cemented himself as a devastating knockout artist with a trio of highlight-reel stoppages at ONE Friday Fights.
But for his part, the Thai is no stranger to tough competition and will bring a mountain of high-level experience into the bout.
Known for his cerebral approach and refined technical striking, Singdomthong has done his homework on Ondash and is sure he’s devised the perfect game plan:
“I’ve studied Abdallah closely. He’s a fighter with a very dangerous left hook and body shots. I need to be extra careful. I definitely won’t underestimate him.
“As for his weakness, he’s a fighter who can’t take heavy punches very well. But I already have a plan to handle his strength, and I am confident that I can beat him.”
Singdomthong understands that his opponent, with his terrifying power and confident charisma, has plenty of hype behind him. In fact, many fans are predicting Ondash to score another knockout on June 13.
But the Nokjeanladkrabang representative has other plans. He said being an underdog doesn’t bother him in the least – and it even fuels his fire to prove the doubters wrong:
“When the fight with Abdallah was announced, some people said I would get knocked out. Those comments didn’t diminish my determination but rather motivated me to train even harder. I want to show everyone that the outcome won’t be what they expect.”
From Struggling Fighter To Bangkok Homeowner
Singdomthong Nokjeanladkrabang’s seven-fight run in ONE has altered the trajectory of his career and his life for the better.
Before he made his promotional debut in the summer of 2023, he was one of countless Thai fighters struggling to make ends meet. Despite his impressive professional record and world-class striking skills, the opportunities simply weren’t there.
He said that fighting on ONE’s massive global platform has changed all of that:
“Since I started fighting in ONE, my life has changed significantly. My recognition has greatly increased, my finances are better, and my life is improving.
“Now, I just bought a house in Bangkok. I can say that my life is progressing steadily.”
Now on the cusp of his first main event appearance and potentially a six-figure contract, Singdomthong is supremely grateful for the opportunities afforded to him in the world’s largest martial arts organization.
From the verge of hanging up his gloves to reaching the pinnacle of the sport, he’s thrilled to have reversed his fortunes:
“ONE always gives me and all fighters great opportunities. Some who had quit fighting have returned to train and fight again, changing many people’s lives, and I am one of them. It’s truly worth the pain.”
