Thai striker Singdomthong Nokjeanladkrabang is stepping into the spotlight in a highly anticipated main event bout against Lebanese fighter Abdallah Ondash at ONE Friday Fights 112. This exciting matchup is set for June 13 and will take place at the famed Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. Fans can expect a thrilling showdown in the 127-pound Muay Thai division, showcasing two elite strikers vying for victory.
Singdomthong has been a standout during his appearances at ONE Friday Fights, achieving six victories in seven fights. His performance has positioned him as a top contender for a coveted US$100,000 contract with the ONE Championship’s main roster. Coming into the bout on a three-fight winning streak, he recognizes the significance of this opportunity and is determined to impress fans worldwide.
In a statement to onefc.com, Singdomthong expressed his pride in reaching this main event status. He acknowledged, "I feel incredibly proud of myself for being able to climb up and become a main event fighter on a global stage. This is another step forward for me. I’m excited to be the most anticipated fight of the night for the fans."
However, Singdomthong is aware of the challenge that Ondash presents. The 23-year-old knockout artist boasts a nearly perfect professional record and will enter the ring with significant momentum, having achieved three highlight-reel knockouts at ONE Friday Fights. Despite this, Singdomthong is no stranger to formidable opponents and brings extensive experience to the clash.
Known for his technical striking and strategic mindset, Singdomthong has thoroughly prepared for Ondash. He noted, "I’ve studied Abdallah closely. He’s a fighter with a very dangerous left hook and body shots. I need to be extra careful. I definitely won’t underestimate him." Singdomthong also pointed out Ondash's vulnerability, stating, "He’s a fighter who can’t take heavy punches very well. But I already have a plan to handle his strength, and I am confident that I can beat him."
The excitement surrounding this fight has led to significant anticipation among fans, with many predicting that Ondash will secure another knockout victory. Nevertheless, Singdomthong feels that being the underdog only fuels his determination to succeed. He commented, "When the fight with Abdallah was announced, some people said I would get knocked out. Those comments didn’t diminish my determination but rather motivated me to train even harder. I want to show everyone that the outcome won’t be what they expect."
Singdomthong’s journey has been truly transformative. Before his debut with ONE in the summer of 2023, he was one of many Thai fighters facing challenging circumstances. Despite possessing exceptional skills, opportunities were scarce. Now, competing on ONE’s global platform has positively impacted both his career and his life. He shared, "Since I started fighting in ONE, my life has changed significantly. My recognition has greatly increased, my finances are better, and my life is improving. Now, I just bought a house in Bangkok. I can say that my life is progressing steadily."
As Singdomthong approaches his first main event and the chance for a six-figure contract, he acknowledges the pivotal role that ONE Championship has played in his life. From nearly exiting the sport to reaching new heights, he feels grateful for the opportunities he has received. "ONE always gives me and all fighters great opportunities. Some who had quit fighting have returned to train and fight again, changing many people’s lives, and I am one of them. It’s truly worth the pain," he stated.
This upcoming bout at ONE Friday Fights 112 on June 13 promises to be a memorable clash between two talented fighters, and Singdomthong is ready to leave it all in the ring. With his determination to prove the doubters wrong and a game plan in place, expect an exciting night of Muay Thai action.
