A monumental night of combat sports action went down inside Bangkok, Thailand's Lumpinee Boxing Stadium as ONE Friday Fights 68: Prajanchai vs. Di Bella took over the iconic venue on 28 June.

The main event saw an entertaining, razor-close scrap as strawweight Muay Thai king Prajanchai PK Saenchai won the vacant ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Title after a five-round thriller with former champ Jonathan Di Bella.

The outstanding strawweight strikers fought tooth and nail across 15 minutes of action as Di Bella took hold of the early goings with his blistering body shots and never-ending cardio.

But midway through the contest, Prajanchai began to find his groove and fight his way back into the contest. His rapid fire leg kicks butchered the Canadian-Italian's foundations to allow him to land strong combinations of his own.

After five grueling rounds, many had arguments for the fight to go either way. But the judges awarded Prajanchai the unanimous decision and he left a two-sport ONE World Champion.

In the co-main event, fans were amazed as ONE Flyweight Kickboxing World Champion Superlek Kiatmoo9 extended his winning streak to 10 in a row against Kongthoranee Sor Sommai in his return to Muay Thai action.

"The Kicking Machine" controlled the evening's co-main event from bell to bell. Superlek's kicks and high output allowed him to stay ahead after taking advantage of his foe's hesitance to pull the trigger.

Kongthoranee attempted to find ways back into the contest. But Superlek remained one step ahead of the two-time Rajadamnern Stadium Muay Thai World Champion. And as a result, the unanimous decision gave Superlek his 10th consecutive victory.

There were 10 other bouts on the undercard featuring the likes of Petchtanong Petchfergus, Tyson Harrison and Kiamran Nabati among others. Here is a look at the final results from ONE Lumpinee 68:
