When ONE Championship makes its return to Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, for ONE Friday Fights 22, fans can expect the most exciting and talent-packed card yet in the weekly Asia primetime series. Set to air on June 23, this lineup boasts two monumental World Title fights, the presence of Thailand's beloved stars, and a highly anticipated promotional debut.
In the main event, the reigning ONE Heavyweight World Champion, Arjan Bhullar, will finally clash with interim titleholder Anatoly Malykhin in an epic mixed martial arts showdown. Bhullar, renowned for his world-class wrestling skills and evolving boxing game, hasn't competed since capturing the belt in 2021. However, during his absence, Malykhin, also known as "Sladkiy," emerged as a formidable force by securing both the ONE Light Heavyweight World Title and the interim crown, all while maintaining an undefeated record and a perfect finishing rate.

The headline affair features a battle for redemption as former two-sport and two-weight champion Sam-A Gaiyanghadao seeks vengeance against Prajanchai PK Saenchai, the man who took his ONE Strawweight Muay Thai World Title in 2021 by a narrow margin. Sam-A, a Thai superstar, has returned to the ring with an outstanding knockout victory, proving that he is still at the top of his game. This high-stakes bout will provide Sam-A with the opportunity to reclaim gold as he faces Prajanchai for the ONE Interim Strawweight Muay Thai World Title in the heartland of the sport.
