Panpayak immediately set the tone in the opening frame with sharp push kicks and straights that kept Lamnamoonlek at bay. The Thai veteran showed his brilliance, but the fight remained competitive early on.
Ready to answer back, Lamnamoonlek went to the body in search of answers. The 28-year-old TDed99 representative kept hunting, cutting angles late to dig punches into his opponent’s midsection.
“The Angel Warrior” unloaded his signature jab-head kick combination in the second frame, keeping Lamnamoonlek honest in between strikes. He also battered Lamnamoonlek’s lead leg and switched kicks to the sternum to seize control of the distance. Undeterred, however, Lamnamoonlek defiantly pushed forward, connecting with a dynamite left hand just before the bell that instantly changed the complexion of the match.
Galvanized by that late exchange, Lamnamoonlek came out like a man possessed in the third and final round, where it was anyone’s fight to win. But the Thai standout was determined to take the victory. He barreled his way into close quarters and detonated punishing hook combinations, highlighted by a massive uppercut that snapped Panpayak’s head back.
While Panpayak’s early advantage in this fight was clear, Lamnamoonlek’s late surge and accumulated damage swung the judges’ scorecards in his favor. A split decision victory saw the TDed99 warrior score the biggest win of his career and his fourth victory in ONE Championship. The win also pushed his record to 107-31, moving him one step closer to a coveted US$100,000 main roster contract.
