Thai legend Seksan Or Kwanmuang made his debut under the ONE Championship umbrella in January 2023 as part of the inaugural ONE Friday Fights event inside the Lumpinee Stadium.
Seksan was pitted against fellow debutant and rising star Tyson Harrison in a catchweight contest, and the world's largest martial arts organization published the full fight replay on YouTube.
The video's description read:

The Aussie tried to impose his physicality against 'The Man Who Yields To No One' with his longer reach and taller frame, but Seksan effectively neutralized it by closing the distance and attacking at close range with short, stabbing elbows and punches.
'John Wayne Noi' had his best moment in the second round when he tagged Seksan with an uppercut that almost knocked him down. But the experience and durability of the battle-tested veteran pushed him through to survive that barrage.
Eventually, Seksan eked out a close split decision victory on the judges' scorecards to thrill the home fans and announce his grand arrival on the global stage.
Seksan to battle with Soe Lin Oo on Jan. 24 at ONE 170
Since his inaugural match under the promotion, the Or Kwanmung representative has swept his fights in 2023, beating other contenders like Silviu Vitez, Sean Clancy, Nathan Bendon, Isaac Araya, Amir Naseri, Karim Bennoui and River Daz.
Seksan suffered his first setback in April 2024 at the hands of Yutaro Asahi at ONE Friday Fights 58 with a unanimous decision defeat. But he instantly returned to the win column with a second-round TKO win against fellow legend Liam Harrison in September at ONE 168: Denver.
Now, he is booked to face Myanmar striking star Soe Lin Oo on Jan. 24 as part of the loaded ONE 170 card, which goes down inside the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand.
