#1. Nico Carrillo

Scottish striking maestro Nico Carrillo made a successful featherweight Muay Thai debut against Sitthichai Sitsongpeenong after he scored an incredible second-round knockout finish against him on Friday evening at ONE Fight Night 30 inside Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

'King of the North' employed a fantastic fight plan by hunting the head of 'Killer Kid' in the opening round to open up the opportunity to attack the body in the second salvo. Once Sitthichai started to protect his head, Carrillo began to chop him down with live shots that eventually ended the match.

This outstanding performance by Carrillo has earned him the well-deserved $50,000 bonus from the ONE honcho, Chatri Sityodtong.

#2. Roman Kryklia

Roman Kryklia proved that he's on a different level among other contenders in the heavyweight Muay Thai division after making quick work of British challenger Lyndon Knowles in their ONE heavyweight Muay Thai world title showdown in the headliner of ONE Fight Night 30 on Friday evening.

The reigning two-sport and two-division world champion flexed his one-punch knockout power with a deadly right-hand straight punch that put Knowles to sleep with just under a minute left in the opening round.

With this latest triumph, the Ukrainian powerhouse extended his win streak to seven and received the final $50,000 performance bonus from ONE Championship Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong.
