ONE Championship

Two fighters with identical 1-1 records against each other finally get a chance to settle which number matters more.

Yodlekpet Or Atchariya meets Pompet Pongsuphan PK in a flyweight Muay Thai rubber match when ONE Friday Fights 170 streams live in Asia primetime from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, on Friday, September 11.

Yodlekpet, a four-time Muay Thai World Champion with more than 130 professional fights on his resume, took the split-decision win in their first meeting before Pompet answered with an identical split-decision result of his own. He now enters on a three-fight winning streak, most recently a unanimous decision over Saw Min Min, while Pompet brings a third-round TKO of Nat Khat Min into the decider.

Both records consist of almost entirely close, competitive fights rather than lopsided results, a pattern that has made their first two meetings among the most closely scored bouts either man has been part of.

Both men’s records have been built through relentless activity on the weekly platform, and neither has shown any sign of slowing down heading into this rubber match. A win here would not only settle the individual series but also strengthen either man’s case for the US$100,000 main roster contract still in play.

The co-main event carries its own numbers worth tracking, with Sandro Bosi meeting Kongchai Chanaidonmueang’s four-fight run in a strawweight showdown between two of the promotion’s hottest hands. Seven additional bouts round out a nine-fight card built almost entirely around fighters chasing the same six-figure number.
