ONE Friday Fights 53 full results and recap: Kongsuk outpoints Petsukumvit in insane Muay Thai brawl

Kongsuk Fairtex delivered complete insanity in his unanimous decision win against Petsukumvit Boi Bangna in the main event of ONE Friday Fights 53 at the iconic Lumpinee Boxing Stadium.

The two flyweight Muay Thai stars started things slowly in the first round, but the pace immediately went into utter bedlam by the time the second round started.

Petsukumvit was the aggressor for much of the middle round and was awarded a standing eight-count when he rained down several knees down Kongsuk’s midsection.

With the knowledge that he was behind in the scorecards, Kongsuk went berserk in the third round and clocked Petsukumvit with mind-numbing combinations.

Kongsuk evened the knockdown count when he floored Petsukumvit with a flurry of headshots early into the third.

The Fairtex Training Center star continued headhunting following the knockdown, and he sent Petsukumvit crumbling to the canvas with a cracking left cross for his second of the round.

Petsukumvit, however, got back up and regained enough composure to mount a late comeback.

Time ultimately favored Kongsuk as he earned the nod of all three judges.

“I feel so relieved right now, I’ve been working so hard for this fight, and I even changed my style,” said Kongsuk in his in-ring interview. “I didn’t know what to do next [after the knockdowns] because he kept coming.”

Kongsuk, a former two-time Lumpinee Muay Thai world champion, snapped his two-fight skid and captured his third win in ONE Championship.
