Show-Stoppers: 3 Big Returns To Watch At ONE Friday Fights 29

ONE Championship is set for another Asia primetime card loaded with elite martial artists at Lumpinee Boxing Stadium – and this edition features the return of three fan favorites.

ONE Friday Fights 29 goes down this Friday, August 18, and the lineup has something for everyone with bouts in three different combat sports disciplines.

Before the action gets underway in Bangkok, Thailand, let’s dive into a trio of featured athletes who never fail to entertain those watching live in attendance and around the globe.

Without further ado, here are three beloved competitors who will be making their highly anticipated returns to action this Friday.

#1 Seksan Or Kwanmuang

Boasting an undefeated record in four thrilling ONE Muay Thai appearances, Seksan “The Man Who Yields To No One” Or Kwanmuang will throw down with Spanish standout Isaac “The Danger” Araya in Friday’s main event.

Revered for his relentless aggression and never-say-die attitude, the legendary four-time Muay Thai World Champion is the most exciting athlete to come out of the ONE Friday Fights event series.

Simply put, the Thai striker has proven to be the definition of must-see TV.

Each of the 34-year-old’s appearances in the organization has been an unforgettable war, won on the strength of his indomitable spirit and wild (and occasionally reckless) approach.

#2 Pongsiri PK Saenchai

Lower on the card, former two-time Lumpinee Muay Thai World Champion and established ONE veteran Pongsiri PK Saenchai will aim to extend his three-fight winning streak when he takes on undefeated Iranian striker Fariyar Aminipour.

After starting his promotional tenure with an unsuccessful bid for the ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Title, Pongsiri struggled against elite competition, going 1-3 through his first four bouts.

But since returning to Lumpinee and ONE Friday Fights, the 32-year-old has appeared in top form while securing electrifying victories over a trio of dangerous strikers.

Fans love Pongsiri for his forward-marching, gritty, all-action style of fighting that makes for a barnburner every time he enters the ring – and this Friday should be no exception.

#3 Agilan Thani

Finally, Malaysian submission ace Agilan “Alligator” Thani will return for the first time in nearly a year to battle Magomedmurad Khasaev in an intriguing welterweight MMA matchup.

A veteran of 18 fights in the ONE and a former World Title challenger in the division, Thani is a prodigious finisher, whether it comes by way of bone-snapping submission or ruthless knockout.

Those traits have made him not only an entertaining fighter but also a fixture of the talent-laden welterweight MMA division.

Given his aggressive style of combat, it’s no surprise that fans are excited to see “Alligator” once again showcase his talents against a world-class opponent.
