ONE Championship (ONE) returned to Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, with ONE Fight Night 23: Ok vs. Rasulov.

In the main event, undefeated star Alibeg Rasulov achieved the most significant victory of his career by defeating former ONE Lightweight MMA World Champion Ok Rae Yoon. The Turkish fighter displayed relentless effort, constantly pressuring his South Korean opponent and maintaining an intense pace through five grueling rounds.

While Ok found his rhythm in the latter half of the contest, Rasulov finished strong, delivering cleaner and more powerful combinations. All three judges scored the bout in Rasulov’s favor, awarding him the win by unanimous decision.

In the co-main event, #1-ranked bantamweight Muay Thai contender Nico "King of the North" Carrillo extended his impressive knockout streak by defeating #4-ranked Saemapetch Fairtex. The Scottish star took control from the outset, rocking his Thai opponent with powerful punches and crushing knees. Despite Saemapetch's fierce attempts to fight back, Carrillo proved too strong.

Carrillo secured the victory in the second round with a perfectly executed left hook that floored Saemapetch. He then dropped his opponent two more times, earning an emphatic win by technical knockout.
