5 Thrilling Reasons To Watch ONE Fight Night 49: Gabriel Vs. Magomedov

Five reasons to tune in to ONE Fight Night 49 on Prime Video this Friday, November 6: the American primetime event features nine thrilling fights across four disciplines and takes place at Bangkok’s Lumpinee Stadium.

First, the highly anticipated showdown between ONE MMA Lightweight World Title contender Lucas Gabriel and Magomed "Muhammad" Magomedov. The Brazilian has a perfect record of six wins, showcasing his dangerous skills in every phase, while Magomed arrives with an impressive 15-0 record and five knockouts. This high-stakes rematch has the potential to determine a shot at the coveted title.

Next, the high-stakes rematch between Kongthoranee Sor Sommai and Taiki "Silent Sniper" Naito in flyweight kickboxing. The Thai star previously defeated Naito by unanimous decision in their October 2023 encounter, while the Japanese warrior has evolved since their last fight, with back-to-back victories over Johan "Panda Kick" Estupinan and Nakrob Fairtex. Whoever emerges victorious in this hotly anticipated sequel could make a strong case for a shot at the vacant ONE Flyweight Kickboxing World Title.

Four more undefeated MMA stars are set to put their perfect records on the line. India's Nazareth "The Northstar" Lalthazuala, with a perfect 8-0 record, faces Lee "The Flash" Seung Cheol in strawweight MMA. Poland's Magdalena "The Powerpuff Girl" Czaban aims to improve to 6-0 in her career against Brazil's Victoria "Vick" Souza in atomweight MMA. Tajikistan's Kalandar Tabarov, also undefeated at 5-0, is set to make his ONE debut.
