Full Card Revealed For The Inner Circle 18 On June 12

ONE Championship returns to the world-famous Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, on Friday, June 12, with The Inner Circle 18, which streams live exclusively at live.onefc.com .

Headlining the show is a flyweight Muay Thai clash between surging Thai sensation Tomyamkoong Bhumjaithai and Azerbaijani brawler Anar Mammadov .

The 22-year-old PK Saenchai Muaythaigym product left his hometown of Surin at 15 to chase his dream in Bangkok, and six years later, he has emerged as one of the most exciting talents in the flyweight Muay Thai division. Tomyamkoong enters the main event on a three-fight winning streak, which includes back-to-back stoppage victories.

Tomyamkoong scored a one-punch knockout of Watcharaphon Singha Mawynn at ONE Friday Fights 116 last July and a third-round TKO of Moldovan debutant Bejenuta Maximus at ONE Friday Fights 149 this past April.

He is now stepping onto The Inner Circle platform to test himself against even tougher competition and with a life-changing US$100,000 contract in his sights.

Mammadov will provide a stern test. The Azerbaijani striker, who trains out of Team Mehdi Zatout in Pattaya, has gone 12-4 in his professional career and brings a kickboxing-influenced style into the matchup.

If the Thai’s hunger and finishing ability hold, the fans in Lumpinee Stadium should be in for another highlight-reel night. But Mammadov has seen enough of the world to know how to ruin the home crowd’s evening.

In the co-main event of The Inner Circle 18, Rambong Sor Therapat takes on Sornsueknoi FA Group in a flyweight Muay Thai showdown that promises to be an explosive affair.
