ONE Championship has added two explosive Muay Thai matchups to ONE Fight Night 42: Eersel vs. Rungrawee on Prime Video on Friday, April 10. Legendary striker Sam-A Gaiyanghadao will face Moroccan standout Elmehdi “The Sniper” El Jamari in a strawweight clash, while Suakim Pongsuphan PK will collide with Russian technician Vladimir Kuzmin in bantamweight action.
These exhilarating clashes will take place live in U. S. primetime from the historic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
View this post on Instagram Sam-A, who represents Evolve MMA, brings a staggering 377-50 career record with an 11-4 promotional slate into this showdown. The southpaw is a former two-sport, two-division ONE World Champion who won the inaugural ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Title, inaugural ONE Strawweight Muay Thai World Title, and inaugural ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Title. Currently riding a two-bout winning streak, the Thai legend emphasizes technical precision and fight IQ through his muay femur style, and he often utilizes lightning-quick kicks and deadly counter punches, which have troubled opponents for more than three decades.
After his most recent victory over former top-five flyweight contender Jaosuayai Mor Krungthepthonburi at ONE Friday Fights 137 last December, Sam-A declared his intentions to pursue another crack at the divisional gold, which is currently held by ONE Strawweight Muay Thai World Champion Prajanchai PK Saenchai . A dominant performance would position the icon perfectly for that opportunity.
