    Tyson Harrison to headline ONE Friday Fights 18 this weekend

    Rising Muay Thai star Tyson Harrison has been elevated to the main event of this weekend’s ONE Friday Fights 18 event.

    “John Wayne Noi” was set to face Pongsiri PK Saenchai on the international portion of the card, but will now face the Thai in the headliner at the historic Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

    It’s another vote of confidence from the ONE brass for the Corporate Box Valley representative, who is hot off the heels of his epic maiden ONE Championship victory over former two-time Rajadamnern Stadium Champion Rambo Mor Rattanabandit just two months ago.

    Harrison’s last-gasp knockout against Rambo followed a razor-thin split decision loss to former four-time Muay Thai World Champion Seksan Or Kwanmuang on debut in January.

    The 22-year-old Queenslander faces another decorated Thai former champion this time around, in the form of Pongsiri.

    Pongsiri will be another stiff test for Harrison, with 205 professional bouts on his resume highlighted by two Lumpinee Stadium Championships and four Muay Thai World Titles.

    The 32-year-old has been with ONE since 2020 and was last seen outpointing tough Turkish striker Ferzan Cicek at ONE Friday Fights 2 in January.

    MMA writer from Melbourne, Australia. I fell in love with combat sports watching boxing with my dad in the late 90s. Discovered MMA at some stage during the Ortiz-Shamrock rivalry and was instantly intrigued. I've trained in Muay Thai on-and-off over the years, but used the prolonged Victorian COVID lockdowns to complete a diploma in sports journalism as a way to channel my passion for the sport
