Main Event
Petsukumvit Boi Bangna vs. Petchmuangsri Tded99
Petsukumvit Winner by Knockout
Petsukumvit Boi Bangna’s performance at ONE Friday Fights 8 could be reduced to one word — relentless. He never took a back step against Petchmuangsri Tded99 and put him away with a brilliant flurry in the corner.
To Petchmurangsri’s credit, he tried to respond to the pressure of his compatriot. However, he simply could not withstand the heat for that long. Petsukumvit varied his strikes enough to not be predictable and never stopped throwing.
The second big performance on ONE Friday Fights will inch the Thai closer to bigger matches in the flyweight division. Petsukumvit is putting his name out there as a significant name to watch in 2023.
