Yodlekpet Or Atchariya closed out the ONE Friday Fights 85 main event with a statement knockout of Puengluang Baanramba inside the Lumpinee Stadium on Nov. 1.

Despite having his back against the wall, the warrior, aptly nicknamed 'The Destroyer', reminded everyone of the power he possesses as he bounced back to winning ways in this epic flyweight Muay Thai duel inside the iconic Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

The four-time Muay Thai world champion closed the distance from the sound of the bell, operating behind his kicks to force his fellow Thai to drop his hands. Though Puengluang soon started catching his kicks, his plan barely opened the door to a possible knockout.

True enough, though his pressure and onslaught troubled the Baanramba man, it was the latter who countered with a one-two combo to send Yoklekpet down for the count in the main event of ONE Friday Fights 85.

Knowing he needed to pull one back, the ONE Friday Fights star went back into offense at the start of the second round, switching things up and spraying punches and elbows all over his 25-year-old foe.

Still, Puengluang took all those shots and replied with downward elbows and counter hooks when his opposite number overextended inside the pocket.

But his persistence to shut the gap and let his foe taste his ferocious power finally paid off in under a minute of the third canto.

'The Destroyer' delivered a stinging left hand that sent his dance partner down for the count. And moments after the match resumed, the multi-time world champion connected with another piston of a left at 0:52 to wrap up the latest edition of ONE Friday Fights.

Earlier in the night, British slugger George Jarvis earned a six-figure contract to compete on the global stage with a show-stopping third-round knockout of Thai striker Rungrawee Sitsongpeenong.

Other superstars who bagged highlight-reel triumphs at ONE Friday Fights 85 inside the 'Mecca of Muay Thai' were Akif Guluzada, Toyota Eaglemuaythai, Lekkla BS Muay Thai, and Tomoki Sato.

The ONE Friday Fights 85 replay will be available on the promotion's official YouTube channel and the ONE Super App. Geo-restrictions may apply.
