Dominant ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world champion Nong-O Gaiyanghadao will be defending his world title against former ONE bantamweight kickboxing king Alaverdi Ramazanov at ONE Friday Fights 1. The event will mark ONE's first event to be held inside the famous Lumpinee Stadium in Thailand.
Needless to say, many fans and fighters are looking forward to seeing Nong-O Gaiyanghadao step into action once again. One such fighter is ONE bantamweight slugger Fabricio 'Wonder Boy' Andrade.
In an interview with The MMA Superfan on YouTube, the Brazilian MMA star spoke about the Muay Thai living legend:
"Nong-O [Gaiyanghadao] is always exciting. I think he's one of the best, if not the best Muay Thai fighters of all time. He's always exciting to watch. He's a smart fighter, a strong fighter. I would say he's going to defend his title very well against his opponent."
Nong-O, much like other Muay Thai legends past and present, made a name for himself inside the legendary walls of Lumpinee Stadium. The dominant ONE bantamweight Muay Thai king has won four titles in four different weight classes in Lumpinee.
Add that to two Thailand titles, one Rajadamnern Stadium title, and a ONE world title (with six straight defenses), then Nong-O Gaiyanghadao could indeed be considered the greatest of all time.

Nong-O Gaiyanghadao demolishes Liam Harrison with one kick in last fight
In his last appearance, Nong-O Gaiyanghadao defended his ONE bantamweight world title for a record sixth time. At ONE on Prime Video 1, the Thai living legend handily dispatched Britain's Liam 'The Hitman' Harrison with a brutal leg kick.
The irony of it all is that Harrison is known to be a leg kick specialist. This goes to show how Nong-O is just a cut above the rest. He demolished the fighter with his own weapon of choice.
At the opening bell, Liam Harrison and Nong-O started exchanging blow-by-blow. Nong-O, however, appeared to have the speed advantage, using his nifty jab to land crushing leg kicks. Just over two minutes into the round, Nong-O landed a frightening leg kick that took Harrison off his feet.
The kick was so perfectly set up and nasty that 'The Hitman' was unable to beat the 10-count, giving Nong-O his ninth straight win and fourth straight KO/TKO inside the circle.
