ONE Fight Night 31 is in the books, and the blockbuster event delivered many exhilarating bouts. The fights featured nail-biting close contests and highlight-reel knockouts. Several young stars emerged victorious and moved up in the ranks.

While a couple of established superstars showed their dominance as well, proving why experience matters at the top. Let's take a look at the biggest winners of ONE Fight Night 31 and who they could face next.

Nong-O Hama

Former Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion Nong-O Hama silenced critics in style by defeating #3-ranked flyweight Kongthoranee Sor Sommai. The Muay Thai living legend proved too much to handle, earning a unanimous decision victory with his pinpoint striking.
The 38-year-old not only claimed his first victory in the flyweight division but also possibly knocked Kongthoranee from his spot in the rankings. With the title still vacant, Nong-O could face #2-ranked contender Superlek Kiatmoo9. If he manages to tame "The Kicking Machine," the World Title could be within reach.

Tye Ruotolo

Tye Ruotolo is the epitome of perfection and dominance. The American sensation has a knack for winning big matches. The ONE Welterweight Submission Grappling World Champion successfully defended his crown against his arch-nemesis Dante Leon in a trilogy bout.
With a record of 8-0, fans are wondering who his next challenger will be. Following in the footsteps of his twin brother, Kade, the reigning champion is preparing for his next chapter. "I'm ready to do my MMA debut pretty soon. I am very excited," he said following the win.

Abolfazl Alipourandi

Before ONE Fight Night 31, most fans weren't aware of Abolfazl Alipourandi's name or skill set. But with his electrifying performance against a decorated striker, he ensured no one would forget him for a long time. Alipourandi's head-kick knockout of Liam Nolan was nothing short of spectacular.
As a last-minute replacement for the injured Nauzet Trujillo, he has now put the entire lightweight division on notice. The weight class is stacked and he could challenge the likes of Bampara Kouyate, George Jarvis, or Sinsamut Klinmee next.
