Akram Hamidi returns to ONE Championship action tomorrow, as he headlines a stellar card at ONE Friday Fights 66.
The French Algerian is 1-1 in ONE Championship, but last time out took current strawweight Muay Thai world champion Prajanchai PK Saenchai the distance, so his pedigree in the division is clear.
The 25-year-old has been handed another tough task however, in the form of Rajadamnern Stadium Muay Thai World Champion Kongchai Chanaidonmueang.
21-year-old Thai fighter Kongchai has made a big impact in ONE Championship since making his debut a little over a year ago. He has four wins under his belt in the promotion, with only two defeats to Kompet Fairtex blotting his record.
Hamidi is a three-time ISKA Kickboxing World Champion and his combative and aggressive style has won many plaudits from the fight world. He now intends to silence Kongchai’s home crowd at the Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok and position himself for another shot at Pranjancai and potentially a world title.
