The Best Pictures From The Inner Circle 36

The Inner Circle 36 delivered an explosive night of Muay Thai and kickboxing action on Friday, October 30, as five exciting bouts produced three spectacular first-round knockouts and two hard-fought decisions at Bangkok’s Lumpinee Stadium.

Streaming exclusively for members on live.onefc.com in Asia primetime, The Inner Circle 36 showcased a mix of rising international talents and established contenders, all looking to make their mark on the global stage.

In the main event, three-time ISKA Kickboxing World Champion Akram “La Pepite” Hamidi made an emphatic atomweight Muay Thai debut, as he stopped former ONE World Title challenger Numsurin Chor Ketwina with a pair of crushing liver shots in the opening round.

The co-main event produced another sensational finish, as Spanish knockout artist Xavier Gonzalez flattened Thai promotional newcomer Exza Wankhongohm with a devastating left hook to the chin.

That marked Gonzalez’s third knockout performance in four fights, and it moved him another step closer to a life-changing US$100,000 contract and global roster spot.

Before we turn our attention to the next installment of the weekly spectacle, take a look at the best pictures from The Inner Circle 36, courtesy of ONE Championship’s ringside photographers.
