Seksan vs. Soe Lin Oo: Intense Muay Thai clash at ONE 170
Striking fans will be in for a treat at ONE 170 on Friday, January 24, 2025, as Thailand’s Seksan Or Kwanmuang faces Myanmar’s Soe Lin Oo in a 142-pound (64 kilogrammes) catchweight Muay Thai bout at Impact Arena in Bangkok.
Seksan, widely recognised by his fitting nickname “The Man Who Yields To No One,” is a four-time Muay Thai World Champion who has amassed over 200 victories in his lengthy career.
The 35 year old brought his trademark aggressive style to ONE Championship, where he compiled an impressive eight-fight winning streak. That run ended in April, though, when he dropped a close decision to Japan’s Yutaro Asahi at ONE Friday Fights 58.
The Thai warrior, however, rebounded in September with a highlight-reel knockout over British fighter Liam “The Hitman” Harrison at ONE 168, no mean feat indeed.
Now, Seksan is ready to test his skills against Soe Lin Oo, a fighter with an equally tough reputation.
Known as the “Man of Steel” for his resilience and granite chin, Soe Lin Oo has become a household name in Myanmar’s lethwei scene and is steadily making his mark in ONE.
The 32 year old began his 2024 campaign with three knockout wins, including a finish of Thai star Pongsiri PK Saenchai. Most recently, however, he fell short in a decision loss to young bantamweight contender Nabil Anane, leaving him hungry for redemption.
Both men are known for their willingness to go head-to-head and trade powerful strikes. Their shared aggressive styles suggest that this slugfest clash will be unlikely to go the distance.
ONE 170 will be topped by a ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Title rematch between belt holder Tawanchai PK Saenchai and top-ranked Superbon, along with a ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Title fight featuring divisional king Superlek Kiatmoo9 and #2-ranked Nico Carrillo.
Mark your calendars fight fans, ONE 170, on January 24, 2025, is a night you do not want to miss out on!
