Nong Oh has already carved his name in history as the most dominant Muay Thai world champion in ONE history.

Kong Torney focused on attacking his opponent's legs, but Nong Oh was determined to close the gap in the first round.
Both fighters gave it their all in the second round, and Nong Oh showed no signs of fatigue. Nong Oh is not going to kneel. He is ready. He is a true warrior. He fights at Lumpini Stadium. There's no chance he'll give up when he goes on the attack with a kick to the head. I do n't even know how he does it, oh, powerful uppercut. My God. Nong Oh reaches for the ring lights with an uppercut, attacking from above. Oh, nice counterattacking kick from Ktuani as he deflected in time. The left hand passed through the center. Dives and dodges, looking for the moment to land powerful strikes while Noo

They Knee to the body from Nho, he tries to use the right leg kick again, but Kungani responds with a beautiful hand combination as Nho puts together a fiery six- punch series to pin him to the ropes. Yes, you see that every time Ronaldo throws a combination and goes forward, even if it leads to a clinch. He is better at
dodging punches than when he tries to back away, because that's when he gets caught coming out of combinations. Kungani manages to deflect many blows. Nomo enters the clinch, looking for a knee strike. Kungani is taken apart in the clinch while No lands a hand strike inside. Capture of the hull. They are breeding them. Two minutes left in the final round. You see that Ktuani is slowing down a bit now. I think he's tired. That's exactly what he said. He said, "I'm ready for the 135-pound division." And we see that, it doesn't seem to have, but he definitely worked on his endurance. Yes, something is wrong, because there are n't many answers coming from that side.
Nongu can beat the third ranked player, trying to break into the top five. Now it's Nongu, he's hitting the forearms again. Ktuani gets hit in the corner. Responds with his left hand. Yes, it works well. He continues to move forward. He throws this kick with his right foot. He puts all his strength into it. Whether he hits the wrist or the hand, he's hitting it with that left hand, and that stops the attacking action. Yo. The real breakthrough is here, at flyweight. What an opportunity for him to get past many high-class rivals and really make his way into the top five. Take this third position here.
Rich, This might put him in the position of a title contender, but it will definitely cement him at number three in the rankings. This is a dominant performance, if you don't take into account what happened in the second round. A good counterattack from Kong, who has 30 seconds to find that same "magic switch" and try to end it all. But now this third round is being dictated by the former eight-time lightweight champion. Can he score a resounding victory in the flyweight division? To tie the score one-on-one in this confrontation against…Uppercut, straight, and then a kick to the body. He locks him in a clinch, looking for a moment to throw an elbow. Can't hit.
Olivia Cost breaks up, precious seconds remain, and we move on to the judges' notes. What a battle! I'll tell you this, Nongo seemed to say, "Not today, old Chas." "Not today." unanimous decision of the judges. No, getting his revenge with a unanimous decision victory. Nongo also received a substantial bonus for his outstanding performance. A year after their last meeting, Nongo sought to end his rivalry with Kongtori in the third fight of their trilogy. The Thai legend came forward with sharp combinations of punches and scored the first knockdown of the match. Wrist. Maybe he was impressed right there. Oh no. It stings with a straight right. It looks like a finisher. Combines punches, trying to remove Kongtori from the ring.
Kongtori has to escape from there. Stay as far away as possible from the powerful hands that Nongo displays. Oh, I got it. A painful blow. sends Kongtori to the canvas. Kongtori survived and responded with left elbows in the second round, waiting for a right leg to counter Nongo, who was firing a series of punches, trying to find a target and make it difficult for Kongtori to choose the moment. They move into close combat. Good job in the clinch. Kongtori again with a short elbow. Oh, great job. He literally kills the body with knee strikes, forcing Nongo to lower his hand to defend, because he knows the blow is coming. High intelligence-hitting
with elbows from above, and now smashing Kongtori's arms with that same signature low kick. Both fighters gave it their all to end their rivalry on a high note. A devastating weapon, although Nongo is better known as a master of kicks. Punishes the body, disassembles the ribs of opponents into pieces. Making rib chops in the barbecue capital of the world. This guy is dangerous everywhere. But now add to that kicking to the head. The third round has begun. Come on, Sara. That's right. Well, that's the point. Head blows are dangerous if they are not expected. So Nongo is even more dangerous. It is constantly evolving. Kong, however, is moving forward.
Cami, he's clearly feeling the heat. He doesn't play in a technical style. Keeps moving. Oh, great dodge from Kung Thani. Fool me once, fool me twice. No chance for a third time. Kung Thani slips out and counters, but Nongo throws him to the canvas. Doug. Again. I try to be objective, but he again dampens this impulse. You know, he was pretty much screwed for a moment, that's for sure. But Nongo's elite IQ-he's not doing anything crazy, guys. These are just elite basics. This is what these legends do best. Oh, that's right. Nongo waved it away, but it really hurt him.
Kung Thani charges a left out of nowhere and lands it on the chin. Trying to add another blow. Oh, now is the time to press. He has to attack, but he has to be careful not to miss himself. Nongo is simply incredibly dangerous. But these fights inside the ring are just crazy. No, Kungani. Third round. 90 seconds left. Third round, trilogy. You see Kungani trying to get inside. Nongo just grabs him and falls, trying to hold him back, to protect himself from a potential elbow. But now we have parted ways again. There's a little over a minute left.
A moment to show themselves and prove which of them deserves to win. Oh my god, we have one knockdown each now. Yes. How are Kungani or Nongo going to end this? Well, that second round will decide everything. Really? The first round was for Nongo. The third one may go to Kungani. I don't want to take my words back, because you can't discount Nongo. But that second round, Kungani seemed to hurt Nongo, even though the punching advantage was on his side. I'm not going to do Muay Thai math right now. I'm just going to enjoy the show for the last 30 seconds. Well, that's the point too. You have to understand: if a fighter makes an impressive comeback after being knocked down, the judges can still award him a round or give him a higher score. So it might
matter. But I'm glad it's not up to me to make that decision. And I just enjoy this high level of striking technique that transitions into the clinch. Bankery grabs, presses in the face, tries to punch with his elbow, but Nong Oh wisely ties him up tightly. We have 10 seconds left. A streak of five wins. Can we make it a series of five? Is this even possible? They fought three times. I mean, this is crazy. Oh, the They exchange blows in front of the referee's notes. The judges needed one more time. What a battle that was Your winner is by unanimous decision of the judges. At almost 40 years old, Nong Oh proved that he is still
at the peak of his form and is far from finished. Watch more performances from the world's best athletes on November 6th when Christian Lee takes on Tyra for the ONE Lightweight World Title at Inner Circle 37. Thanks for watching One Weekly.
