ONE Friday Fights 46 Full Results: Tawanchai Battles Past Superbon in Successful Title Defense to End Knockout-Filled Final Event of the Year

ONE Championship’s final event of the year produced fireworks just as the world’s largest martial arts organization looks set to kick off a massive 2024. 

Last Friday, ONE Friday Fights 46: Tawanchai vs. Superbon saw two new World Champions and plenty of knockouts inside the legendary Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. 

Tawanchai PK Saenchai comes out on top against Superbon

In the main event, Tawanchai PK Saenchai successfully defended his ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Title against a fiery Superbon Singha Mawynn. The pair gave fans everything they had through five rounds of high-octane action. 

No one knew who the winner was until the judges’ decision was read. Ultimately, it was Tawanchai whose hand was raised, keeping his place as the top fighter in his division. 

The co-main event saw the ONE Strawweight Muay Thai World Championship change hands, as Prajanchai PK Saenchai avenged his loss to Joseph Lasiri and unified the ONE Strawweight Muay Thai World Championship.  

Lasiri appeared confident playing the villain in front of the packed stadium, dancing in the middle of the ring during the fighter introductions. Unfortunately for him, Prajanchai was not interested in playing around and knocked out “The Hurricane” at the 1:28 mark of the first round.

A ONE Interim Atomweight Kickboxing World Champion was also crowned that night, with “The Queen” Phetjeeja Lukjaoporongtom overcoming multiple-time World Champion Anissa Meksen via unanimous decision.

It was a technical masterclass between two accomplished veterans, as they figured in five rounds of action. “The Queen” capped off her debut year with ONE Championship undefeated in five fights and gold draped on her shoulder. 

Meanwhile, another star shone even brighter, as Nico Carrillo knocked out striking legend Nong-O Hama in the second round of their bantamweight Muay Thai battle. 

“King of the North” faced early adversity as Nong-O’s kicks hit their mark and appeared to cripple the Scot by the end of the first round. However, Carillo used his hands to great effect, unleashing bomb after bomb until finally dropping his opponent at the 1:28 mark of the second round. 

The pair shared their mutual respect and admiration for each other during the post-fight in-ring interview. 

In the opening bout of the main card, Seksan Or Kwanmuang edged out River Daz via split decision in their catchweight Muay Thai match. With his win, Seksan closed his year in ONE with an astonishing 8-0 record, and may be looking at contending for gold in the upcoming year.
