  • Abdallah Ondash continues to impress in ONE Championship

    There were some huge wins for Middle East fighters on another big night of action in ONE Championship.

    At ONE Friday Fights 61 Lebanese brothers Ramadan and Abdallah Ondash secured impressive wins to further enhance their Muay Thai credentials.

    Ramadan was first in the ring and flew out of the traps, dropping his opponent 

    Pichitchai PK Saenchai twice in the opening minute, before going on to pick up a well-deserved unanimous decision win.

    At just 17 years of age and with two wins already under his belt in ONE Championship, the future is looking bright for the Tiger Muay Thai prospect.

    Brother Abdallah was equally impressive. His battle with Suesat Manop Gym was a wild affair with both men throwing everything they had at each other, before Ondash was given the unanimous decision win. 

    That moves the 22-year-old to 4-0 in ONE Championship and a real threat in the strawweight Muay Thai division.

    Later in the night at ONE Fight Night 22 Morocco’s Zakaria El Jamari secured arguably the biggest win of his career when outlasting Thongpoon PK Saenchai in the strawweight MMA class. Thongpoon had a fearsome record going into the contest but El Jamari refused to be denied with a combination of guys and power-striking giving him his first ONE Championship victory.

    It was not all good news for the region however, in ONE Fight Night 22 co-main event, Turkey’s Halil Amir suffered a second-round KO at the hands of Akbar Abdullaev. Both men carried unblemished records into the bout, but a booming left hook form the Kyrgyz fighter ended this one early.
