Taking place in Bangkok at the Impact Arena, ONE 170 had bantamweight champ Fabricio Andrade looking to make the first defense of his title in a rematch with South Korea’s Kwon Won Il. Andrade had claimed gold by defeating former UFC standout John Lineker, a fellow former ONE champ who had been stripped of his title in an earlier fight with Andrade. Prior to his two fights with Lineker, Andrade had put on a Performance of the Night against Kwon Won Il at ONE 158, stopping his rival with a body kick.

In addition to that highly anticipated MMA rematch, Muay Thai stars Tawanchai and Superbon ran things back in their second meeting, in the might’s main event. The ONE featherweight Muay Thai title was on the line, with Tawanchai earning a majority decision victory in the pair’s first meeting.

ONE Championship officials announced that match-up and two other title fights for the Atlanta card on Friday. The event takes place on November 8, 2024 at the State Farm Arena.

Lee (17-4) has not fought since 2022, taking time away from the sport following the tragic passing of sister Victoria late that year. Victoria, Christian, and the now-retired Angela Lee all competed for ONE Championship, with younger sibling Adrian joining them earlier this year.

A two-time champ at lightweight, Lee captured the promotion’s welterweight title as well in his last outing, when he defeated Kiamrian Abbasov via TKO in the fourth round of their meeting at ONE on Prime Video 4.

Christian Lee holds notable wins over Shinya Aoki, Timofey Nastyukhin, and Ok Rae Yoon, and holds records for ONE Championship including most wins, finishes, and knockouts in the promotion’s history.

Turkey’s Alibeg Rasulov is another stiff test. He’s a perfect 14-0 thus far in his career, and is coming off a win over Ok Rae Yoon earlier this month.

The other two title fights announced on Friday see “Reug Reug,” properly Ourmar Kane, challenging Anatoly Malykhin for heavyweight gold, while a third fight between featherweight Muay Thai champ Tawanchai and Smokin’ Joe Nuttawut rounds out the trio.

ONE 169 will be just the third event the promotion has hosted in the United States. ONE first came to the states in May of 2023 with ONE Fight Night 10: Johnson vs. Moraes III in Colorado. And it was announced, in March, that the promotion will again travel to Colorado for ONE 168: Denver. A star-studded card featuring: Stamp Fairtex, Jonathan Haggerty, Mikey Musumeci and Liam Harrison, among others.

ONE’s heavyweight champion, Anatoly Malykhin (14-0), also the ONE middleweight and light heavyweight champion will be making his first defense of any of his belts. Malykhin, unified the heavyweight title by finishing the champ, Arjan Bhullar, in the third round of their 2023 title unification fight.

‘Reug Reug’ (6-1) turned pro in just 2019. The Senegalese fighter, trained in the traditional combat art of his region, mbapatte wrestling, and has had a meteoric rise thru the ranks. Reug Reug is a tank of a man, and both fighters have 18 finishes between them.

Tawanchai P.K. Saenchai and Jo Nattawut will look to settle the score again, after the controversial decision at ONE 167. Tawanchai stole a majority decision over Jo Nattawut for the ONE muay thai featherweight championship, a little over a week ago. The pair’s first meeting was in October 2023 when Tawanchai won a unanimous decision over ‘Smokin’ Jo.

Now, Jo will have a bit of homefield advantage as the fighter has lived and trained in Georgia for the past decade.

Fights are scheduled to be in State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. The arena underwent 234 million dollars’ worth of renovations from 2017 to 2018. It’s hosted four MMA events, most recently in 2019. (UFC 88, UFC 145, UFC 201, UFC 236)

Tickets for ONE 169 will go on sale to the public on Friday, July 12th and pre-sale starts Friday, July 5th.

Petchmorakot, a former Lumpinee Stadium champion, had been the only champion in the history of the ONE Muay Thai featherweight division, and has defended his belt three times including a controversial split decision over Jimmy Vienot in his last bout. Meanwhile Tawanchai was the former Lumpinee Stadium Fighter of the Year and had been on a collision course with the champion ever since signing with ONE in 2020. The time had finally arrived for two of the most talented Thais in the world to face off in what, on paper, promised to be a thrilling fight.

Early on, Petchmorakot backed up Tawanchai and the pair of southpaws traded kicks to the legs and body. Tawanchai was the first to change it up and use his hands as he charged forward with a combination, but Petchmorakot avoided the blows by stepping backwards, stopping his pressure for a moment. Most of the scoring offense was leg kicks throughout, but those were often checked by each fighter. At the end of the round, mostly a feeling out process, it seemed the pressure and slightly higher volume of Petch probably won the round, 10-9.

Tawanchai made more use of his push kick to deflect the pressure of Petchmorakot in the second round, in one early instance pushing the champ halfway across the cage. Soon after, Petchmorakot turned up the heat and landed a big right. Tawanchai seemed to get incensed as he started returning violent combinations, landing some as he got on the front foot and pressed Petchmorakot back. The champion was not to be cowed however, and the fight really got going as they traded full power strikes in the pocket. Exciting, lightning fast attacks went back and forth between both men and it was almost impossible to tell who was getting the better of the exchanges. To close out the close round, Tawanchai got through with a big combination after catching a kick of Petchmorakot.

Tawanchai and Petchmorakot opened the next round trading with as much speed and intensity as the last. Tawanchai started it off with a big left hand and seemed to be scoring more in the opening minute. He then landed a big left that seemed to stagger Petch and tossed him over his hip onto the ground immediately after, but received a warning from the ref for an illegal dump technique. A massive elbow and left hand landed from Tawanchai next. Anyone with a lesser chin than Petchmorakot’s would surely have been knocked out. The champ returned with his own clean elbow strike and combination after a brief clinch exchange before getting dumped to the canvas again from the clinch. It seemed Tawanchai had definitely landed more clean shots and landed harder when he connected during the third round.

Early in the fourth round Tawanchai may have hurt the champion off of a caught kick by returning with a head kick of his own. Petchmorakot, as ever, was able to stay standing and clinch to recover. He began to return to his forward pressure but Tawanchai was largely evasive enough to not get stuck against the fence and was fast enough to counter with clean strikes even as he got tagged. But soon it was apparent that Tawanchai was slowing down and getting tired from the high pace of the fight. He could not keep up the volume of the second and third rounds. Petchmorakot finished strong as he caught two kicks and landed straight lefts to the chin of the challenger off of each one near the end of the round. But at the very end of the round Tawanchai got on the front foot and threw a flurry of blows, landing a couple, right before the bell.

The scorecards could have been all over the place going into the final round, but it had the feeling of a fight that was tied up. Kicking off the fifth round was a big counter hook from the challenger that landed clean and pushed Petchmorakotback, but the ever-durable champion used his superior cardio to get right back on the offensive, pushing Tawanchai back, who now looked more tired than ever. The pace had definitely slowed from both men but the drama was high in such a close fight and every strike was crucial. Petchmorakot’s pressure was constant early and he was landing more. However, in the final minute Tawanchai got on the front foot himself and landed a solid head kick. The champion was not to be outdone, though, as he countered that kick with a clean hook and landed two more massive straight left hands to the chin of the challenger in the last ten seconds of the fight, likely sealing at least the final round in his favor.

The scorecards could be all over the place at the end of this thrilling war, and fans everywhere were surely on the edge of their seats as they awaited the verdict. When Dom Lau read the scorecards, it was a unanimous decision in favor of Tawanchai PK Saenchai, to the clear surprise of Petchmorakot whose 965-day title reign had now come to an end. ONE Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong put the belt over the young man’s shoulder and he collapsed onto the ground as golden confetti covered the body of the new featherweight Muay Thai champion.
