WATCH: Thai superstar Tawanchai PK Saenchai swarms fellow knockout machine Saemapetch in Singapore showdown

Tawanchai PK Saenchai has been dominant since making his ONE Championship debut three years ago on his way to becoming one of the promotion's bonafide superstars. Among his impressive victories was over fellow Thai fighter Saemapetch Fairtex, whom he knocked out in the opening round with his ferocious but efficient striking.

The two collided in January 2022 at ONE: Heavy Hitters at the Singapore Indoor Stadium in a catchweight (146.5 pounds) Muay Thai battle. The PK Saenchai Muaythaigym standout dominated right at the onset, steadily putting pressure on Saemapetch with his punches and push kicks. He eventually set up a finish with a series of shots, punctuated by a straight left-counter late in the opening frame.

ONE Championship relived the explosive performance of Tawanchai with a video post on its official Instagram account in line with his scheduled return to action in January 2025.

Check out the post below:

The victory over Saemapetch started an eight-fight winning run for Tawanchai, which still stands up to this day. Along the way he won the ONE featherweight Muay Thai world title, which he is looking to defend successfully again at ONE 170 on Jan. 24.

ONE 170 will take place at the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand, and air live and for free in U.S. primetime to North American fans with an active Amazon Prime Video subscription.
