ONE Championship is set to light up Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok this Friday, September 25, with a loaded fight card. The Inner Circle 32 brings two legendary Thai veterans up against hungry kickboxing threats, and it’s all streaming live exclusively for members at live.onefc.com. If you love high-stakes flyweight action, you’re not going to want to miss this one.

“The Angel Warrior” Puts His Undefeated Streak On The Line

In the main event, “The Angel Warrior” Panpayak Jitmuangnon is putting his perfect 4-0 kickboxing record in ONE Championship on the line. This dude, a seven-time Muay Thai World Champion and three-time Fighter of the Year in Thailand from 2013 to 2015, pivoted to kickboxing rules and hasn’t looked back. He picked up a split-decision victory over Othman Rhouni back in May and followed that up with a unanimous decision against Anuar Cisneros two months later. Panpayak is technical, patient, and still throws that left kick that’s ended careers.

Across the ring, Lamnamoonlek Torfunfarm, a WMC World Champion, is looking for a massive bounce-back win. He joined ONE as one of the most talked-about names in Thailand’s Muay Thai scene and built serious momentum with a Muay Thai win and two kickboxing victories. But then Yuan Pengjie snapped his winning streak in March. Lamnamoonlek needs to remind everyone why his arrival in the world’s largest martial arts organization generated so much buzz, and beating Panpayak would absolutely do it.

Kongthoranee Sor Sommai Takes a Massive Risk

The co-main event is just as wild, with three-time Rajadamnern Stadium Muay Thai World Champion Kongthoranee Sor Sommai making his ONE Championship kickboxing debut against Chinese sensation Yuan Pengjie. This is a huge switch for Kongthoranee, whose Muay Thai journey in ONE has been a rollercoaster lately. He earned his contract back in April 2024 by defeating Jaosuayai Mor Krungthepthonburi and then shocked everyone by beating the legendary Nong-O Hama via split decision in February 2025.

But man, he hit a rough patch after that. He lost to Nong-O in their rematch in May 2025, pushed then-undefeated Aslamjon Ortikov to the limit before losing, got knocked out by future divisional kingpin Asadula Imangazaliev three months later, and then dropped the trilogy to Nong-O this past June. Now, the 29-year-old is turning to kickboxing to reverse his fortunes. Standing in his way is Yuan Pengjie, who is absolutely on fire with back-to-back promotional victories over Lamnamoonlek Torfunfarm and Jaosuayai. Yuan has emerged as one of the most promising young talents in kickboxing, and this debut is a true test for Kongthoranee.

Two huge flyweight kickboxing clashes, two legends with everything to prove. You won’t want to miss The Inner Circle 32 this Friday, September 25, when the action kicks off from Bangkok. Get ready, because these fights are going to be absolutely nuts.
