Dedduanglek Torfunfarm knocked out Lumpinee Stadium Muay Thai champion Mongkoldetlek Por Pim-on with punches at 1:26 of Round 2 in the main event of ONE Friday Fights 174 on Friday, October 9, at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok. It was a stoppage of a champion, in his own building’s headliner, by a man walking in without the title.
Cageside Press noted before the card that one of the night’s big winners would have a $100,000 ONE Championship contract waiting at the end of the evening. Neither results report named who got it, so that piece of paper is still an open item as far as the public record goes.
The undercard
The best story under the headliner might belong to Petmanee P.K.SiamaxMP.Service. ONE Championship posted on X that he is 16 years old and was making his debut. He stopped D-Max KrutikMS.SportThailand on the three-knockdown rule at 2:41 of Round 1. PetUbon Sor.Tienchai won the same way against Sudsab Sor.Sasiwat, finishing at 1:52 of Round 2.

Khundet P.K.Saenchai, originally listed against Aldo Cruz, ended up facing Kiwthong TKD.Muaythai and took a majority decision, helped by a Round 2 knockdown the promotion flagged on X. Pet Sitchalongsak beat Singharat Sitkhuntab by unanimous decision, as did Chabakaew Sor.Kanjanchai against Yana Yip. In kickboxing, Naoki Morita dropped Omar El Morabet in the first round and rode that to a unanimous decision. The lone MMA bout in the Combat Press results went to Philemon Bitrus Jeb, who outpointed Batireedui Ganbaatar. A scheduled MMA fight between Denis Andreev and Waldimir Britez appeared on Cageside Press’s preview card but not in Combat Press’s final results.
The Inner Circle 34
Rustam Yunusov stayed perfect. The undefeated Russian flyweight beat Thailand’s Suriyanlek Por.Yenying by unanimous decision in the Inner Circle headliner, and ONE Championship said on X that the win puts the 19-year-old at 18-0 with nine straight victories in the promotion.

Yodthewin made his debut count, stopping Arman Moradi with a punch at 1:29 of Round 2. (The two results reports list him under different gym names, Siaarmkrohpetfarm and Mor Rajabhatmubanchombueng.) Linus Bylander took a unanimous decision over Tyson Harrison. Kongsuk Sitsarawatsuer edged Ruslan Tuktarov on a split. Attachai Kelasport beat Kojiro Shiba by unanimous decision in kickboxing.

My take: if that $100,000 contract was on the table, it’s hard to see it going anywhere but to the man who put the Lumpinee champion on the canvas for good in the main event. Yunusov at 18-0 and 19 years old is the bigger long-term story, but stopping a sitting Lumpinee champion is the kind of result that gets a fighter’s name moved up the next card.
