Tawanchai Keeps ONE Featherweight Muay Thai Title with 2nd-Round TKO

Tawanchai PK Saenchai retains ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Title With Dominant Second-Round TKO Victory Over Superbon

ONE Championship, the world’s largest martial arts organization, electrified the sold-out Impact Arena with another action-packed evening at ONE 170, which featured three massive World Title fights in Muay Thai and MMA.

In the main event, reigning ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Champion Tawanchai PK Saenchai authored a spectacular finish of #1-ranked contender and current ONE Featherweight Kickboxing World Champion Superbon in their highly anticipated rematch.

Tawanchai showcased his trademark blinding speed and concussive power, delivering explosive boxing combinations from mid-range that had Superbon on unsteady footing early in the first round. The 25-year-old superstar then put on a blistering pace in the second frame, knocking his Thai compatriot down three times to score an emphatic technical knockout victory and retain his coveted gold.

In one of the co-main events, ONE Bantamweight MMA World Champion Fabricio Andrade made a successful first defence of his gold with a quick finish over #3-ranked contender Kwon Won II in their rematch.

Andrade pushed the pace early to start the match, meeting Kwon at centre Circle with heavy artillery. A left hook to the body crumpled the South Korean and Andrade proceeded to complete the demolition job with a torrent of ground-and-pound.

In the first co-main event of the night, #5-ranked contender Nabil Anane turned in a dominant performance to finish #2-ranked Nico Carrillo, taking home the ONE Interim Bantamweight Muay Thai World Title.

The 6-foot-4 Anane used every bit of his height and reach advantage to keep Carrillo out of range, as he sent the Scottish slugger to the canvas three times in the first round. The first knockdown came from a straight right hand, followed by another one from a head kick that had Carrillo dazed. The Algerian-Thai phenom then swarmed “King of the North” with a fierce combination to send him down for a third time.With the TKO victory, the 20-year-old Anane won the interim bantamweight Muay Thai belt and earned a World Title unification bout with divisional king Superlek Kiatmoo9 later this year.
