ONE Friday Fights 67 Results: Nakrob Ends Khalilov, Waghorn Stops Kongklai In Amazing Comeback

By Mike Joseph

ONE Friday Fights 67 took hold of Bangkok, Thailand's Lumpinee Boxing Stadium on June 14 and delivered another episode of world-class combat sports across 11 exciting Muay Thai and MMA bouts.

The main event saw Nakrob Fairtex earn a ONE Championship contract worth US$100,000 with his knockout of #2-ranked kickboxing contender Tagir Khalilov in their flyweight Muay Thai bout, extending the Thai's winning streak to four in a row.

The early goings of the fiery fight was fairly even as the pair traded leg kicks and knees. But Nakrob found his groove and range after a short feeling-out process.

From then onward, his momentum rose with every shot he threw. And once Nakrob found a home for his attacks, the knockout artist stepped in and countered "Samingpri" with a short right elbow that put Khalilov down at 2:02 of round one.

The co-main event saw a remarkable debut as British Muay Thai star Otis Waghorn came back from the brink of defeat to finish Kongklai Sor Sommai in the final round of their 140-pound catchweight Muay Thai war.

The unbeaten star got dropped early on in the fight when Kongklai tagged him with a right hand before landing another counter to put the former's unblemished professional record in danger.

However, the 22-year-old took an intelligent approach on the outside in round two, recovering while waiting for moments to fire back and engage in the clinch to take control of the contest.

After regaining his composure, Waghorn charged into the third frame and dropped Kongklai with a spinning back fist. Smelling blood, he piled on the pressure and landed a right hand to end the contest at the 1:34 mark of round three. Here is a look at the final results:
