Ondash moves up after first career defeat

Suriyanlek questions Ondash’s move to flyweight

Suriyanlek admitted he did not expect Ondash to move up. He pointed to the gap in power between the divisions. "I was actually a bit surprised that he decided to move up to flyweight because he's going to face much heavier impact and power here," he said.

Suriyanlek stressed his long-term comfort at the higher class. "Even though he's dropped a lot of fighters before, I've been fighting at flyweight my entire career," he said. The veteran believes this experience under full flyweight power gives him a clear advantage.

The Thai fighter expects the teenager to attack from the start. "He's definitely going to come out swinging from the opening bell because if he lets the fight drag on, he's going to lose the power-and-impact battle. And me? I'm absolutely ready to trade with him," Suriyanlek said.

Suriyanlek has set a bold target for himself. "I think there's a high chance it ends in the very first round. If I can score a highlight-reel knockout against Ramadan, it proves that I am absolutely good enough to be a ONE Championship athlete," he said.
