The world\u2019s largest martial arts organization returns to the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, on August 29 for another explosive installment of its weekly event series.<\/p>\n
ONE Friday Fights 122 will broadcast live from the legendary venue in Asia primetime. There, nearly two dozen athletes across Muay Thai, kickboxing, and MMA will vie for a life-changing US$100,000 contract and a spot on ONE Championship\u2019s main roster.<\/p>\n
In the flyweight Muay Thai main event, Thai legend Panpayak Jitmuangnon<\/a> will face undefeated Russian sensation Asadula Imangazaliev<\/a> in a compelling clash of experience versus youth. <\/p>\n The 29-year-old Panpayak\u2019s journey from sleeping in bus stations to becoming a seven-time Muay Thai World Champion epitomizes the fighting spirit that made him a three-time Sports Writers of Thailand Fighter of the Year.<\/p>\n The 22-year-old Asadula brings perfect professional credentials and devastating finishing power to this pivotal contest. His IFMA Championship background has shaped him into a formidable force seeking to stun Thai royalty.<\/p>\n The co-main event features an intriguing 117-pound Muay Thai showdown between two undefeated promotional stars as already-contracted Songchainoi Kiatsongrit<\/a> squares off with Numsurin Chor Ketwina<\/a>. The 25-year-old Songchainoi has been a force in ONE, racking up a nine-fight winning streak.<\/p>\n Numsurin brings adaptability and veteran wisdom to the contest. The 30-year-old\u2019s approach of matching his opponent\u2019s style, whether as aggressor or counter-striker, has served him well since he discovered his passion for Muay Thai at age 9.<\/p>\n In bantamweight Muay Thai action, Ferrari Fairtex<\/a> will face Kongklai Sor Sommai<\/a> in an inspiring clash of perseverance stories. Ferrari was a Channel 7 Stadium Champion and represents triumph over adversity, with dreams of ONE World Championship glory driving his ambition.<\/p>\n Kongklai brings his own tale of resilience to the contest. The 26-year-old\u2019s early career saw him lose his first 10 fights, including a debut knockout defeat, before finding his rhythm with an incredible 18-fight winning streak that included 15 knockouts. The former Omnoi Stadium Champion fights for his 4-year-old child\u2019s future.<\/p>\n The card also features compelling international action as WBC Muay Thai World Champion Mohammad Siasarani<\/a> returns to kickboxing competition in the featured bout. The Iranian sensation has established himself as one of the most exciting fighters in the featherweight division.<\/p>\n
