Tagir Khalilov to Face Kongthoranee at ONE Fight Night 25
Former ONE Flyweight Muay Thai world title challenger Tagir Khalilov faces a tough test to reclaim his place within the division’s top five rankings.
The Russian intends to bounce back from a first-round knockout loss suffered at the hands of Thailand’s Nakrob Fairtex.
The 31-year-old faces the former Rajadamnern Stadium Muay Thai World Champion Kongthoranee Sor Sommai.
Most recently, Kongthoranee’s incredible seven-fight unbeaten streak was halted by a defeat to ONE Flyweight Kickboxing World Champion and pound-for-pound great Superlek Kiatmoo.
Headlined by a ONE Lightweight Kickboxing world title rematch in which Alexis Nicolas defends his title against Regian Eersel, ONE Fight Night 25 kicks off at 3:00 AM Mecca on Saturday, October 5, and is broadcast live via beIN SPORTS in the MENA region.
