Kongthoranee Sor Sommai won the first fight on a split decision. Nong-O Hama won the second by unanimous verdict. June 26 at Lumpinee Stadium is the tiebreaker.
Nong-O faces Kongthoranee in a flyweight Muay Thai trilogy bout at ONE Friday Fights 160, streaming live from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, on Friday, June 26.
Their first meeting at ONE Fight Night 28 last February marked Nong-O’s debut in the flyweight division after his legendary reign as an eight-time ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion. Kongthoranee took that bout via split decision after a contest that had judges divided throughout.
The rematch at ONE Fight Night 31 in May went the other way. Nong-O pressed from the opening bell and refusing to give Kongthoranee the space to build his combinations. He earned a unanimous decision to level the series.
With one fight apiece, a trilogy was always the only logical conclusion. Nong-O is 39 years old, carrying a 267-59 career record and the full weight of one of Muay Thai’s most storied legacies.
Kongthoranee is 29, with a 72-19 record and three Rajadamnern Stadium World Championship titles earned during the prime years of an already distinguished career. Both men know the other well. Neither has found a finish yet. June 26 changes that calculus.
What the third fight between Nong-O and Kongthoranee must settle at ONE Friday Fights 160
The first fight told one story. Kongthoranee came out with aggressive intent in round one. He attacked with kicks, teeps, and elbows before Nong-O steadied himself in round two and pushed back. Kongthoranee closed strong in the third, and the split decision reflected how close the margins were across all three rounds.
The second fight told a different one. Nong-O arrived with a specific plan — more punches, more pressure, less room for Kongthoranee to establish his rhythm — and executed it across all three rounds to earn the clean verdict.
What the third fight needs to settle is whether Kongthoranee’s first-fight blueprint still works against a veteran who has now studied him twice, and whether Nong-O at 39 can maintain the relentless output that defined his rematch performance one more time.
