In the main event, Thai knockout artist Petninmungkorn NamkangIceland collides with his surging compatriot Pet Suanluangrodyok in an atomweight Muay Thai showdown between two of the division’s most dangerous finishers.

A fearless pressure fighter with a dynamite straight right and a punishing right body kick, Petninmungkorn rides a six-fight winning streak with four knockouts into Friday, hunting the finish from the opening bell as he always does. He fights to give his family a better life, and a contract would bring that dream within reach.

Pet arrives with momentum that has turned heads across the division. Training at Sitsarawatseur, the aggressive banger from Khon Kaen has assembled a three-fight winning streak highlighted by a statement victory over Adam Sor Dechapan.

Following in the footsteps of the ex-fighter father he idolizes, Pet steps into the biggest fight of his career ready to prove he belongs at the very top of the weekly series.

In the co-main event, elegant kicking technician Suksawat PK Saenchai takes on explosive Russian power puncher Ilyas Musaev in a bantamweight Muay Thai clash of contrasting styles.

Suksawat’s weapon is a thing of beauty. The 25-year-old PK Saenchai Muaythaigym product builds his entire game around a venomous left body kick — patient, precise, and capable of dismantling opponents piece by piece.

Forced into Muay Thai by poverty and the teasing of an older brother he could never beat, he has grown into one of the most poised technicians in his division. He arrives on a two-fight winning streak, including a victory that handed Linus Bylander the first defeat of his professional career, and heads into Friday looking to prove his craft can neutralize raw power.

Musaev brings exactly that raw power. The 24-year-old from Dagestan is an explosive puncher who touches gloves to find his range before detonating precise straights and compact combinations.

He has shared the ring with tough opponents and possesses the kind of one-punch ability that makes every second of this matchup dangerous. On Friday, the immovable technique of Suksawat meets the unstoppable force of Musaev.
