WATCH: The brutal and technical back-and-forth between Thai stars Tawanchai, Jo Nattawut in 2023 kickboxing clash

Despite the year being late 2023, the intense and relentless action that ONE Championship Muay Thai star Tawanchai PK Saenchai is known for has remained a constant in every one of his bouts.

During ONE Fight Night 15, the featherweight Muay Thai world champion was scheduled to face off against fellow Thai star Superbon Superbon Training Camp, creating an exciting showdown between two generations of superstar fighters.

Despite Superbon being forced off the card due to injury, ‘Smokin’ Jo Nattawut stepped in as a replacement – a dynamic knockout specialist determined to reclaim victory after losing to Chingiz Allazov and Jamal Yusupov in his previous two fights.

Despite being aware that facing Nattawut in a fight would be a challenging task, Tawanchai remained self-assured as he had recently achieved five consecutive victories leading up to the major kickboxing match.

Nattawut immediately took the offensive against Tawanchai as soon as the opening bell rang. In return, the ONE featherweight Muay Thai world champion, Tawanchai, eagerly matched Nattawut’s aggression, providing the spectators at Lumpinee Boxing Stadium with an impressive showcase of striking techniques.

After all was said and done, the 24-year-old emerged victorious with a unanimous decision, raising his hand in victory.

Tawanchai and Jo Nattawut to Face Off in Highly Anticipated Rematch

The ONE Championship organizers were captivated by the energy and excitement of the Tawanchai and Nattawut fight, and have decided to hold a rematch on June 7 at ONE 167, which will take place at the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand.

Nattawut is convinced that if he had the opportunity to have a complete training camp, he would have defeated Tawanchai in their first encounter.

With only 167 months left until the event, Nattawut will have a chance to demonstrate the truth of his statements, especially considering that Tawanchai’s ONE featherweight Muay Thai world championship will be at stake.

All Prime Video subscribers in North America will be able to watch ONE 167 live and free of charge.
