Lebanon's Abdallah Ondash confident on ONE Championship mission
DUBAI: Lebanese Muay Thai star Abdallah Ondash is putting the final touches to preparations for the biggest matchup of his career. For the latest updates, follow us @ArabNewsSport The young Lebanese athlete features in the main event of global martial arts organization ONE Championship's ONE Friday Fights 112 on June 13 inside Bangkok's historic Lumpinee Stadium. Ondash is no stranger to the iconic venue. He made a remarkable debut in the weekly fight series on Aug. 4, 2023, coming from behind to knock out his opponent with one second to go on the clock. The highlight-reel finish amazed fans worldwide who tune in every week as rising talents in the world of martial arts vie for a big contract and a place on ONE Championship's international roster. Ondash is oozing confidence ahead of his next mission, and said: 'I want to focus and take my time (during the fight). Hopefully, I will win this fight. I don't like talking much about fights; I let my performance in the ring do the talking.' The 23-year-old Lebanese fighter has an impressive resume. Since turning professional in 2017, Ondash has amassed an overall professional record of 21-2, and picked up national, regional, and global accolades. But the rising star knows he has a tough test on Friday as he takes on Thai opponent Singdomthong Nokjeanladkrabang in a 57.6 kg contest. The 28-year-old holds a 6-1 record at ONE Friday Fights. The two fighters are evenly matched in their height, weight, and reach, but the Thai is far more experienced, with 84 career wins and accolades that include the World Muaythai Council's Featherweight Muay Thai world title and IFMA World Championship. Ondash has nothing but respect for his opponent, and said: 'He (has) won six out of seven and lost one fight by the smallest of margins. He is a good fighter and has won lots of accolades.' With two grueling training sessions per day for five weeks, Ondash has been focusing his efforts on improving his conditioning, cardio and fitness to keep up with an experienced fighter known for his slick movement and endurance. However, Ondash owns the skill set, courage, and in-ring intelligence to claim what could be a pivotal win in his career. He secured his third knockout victory at the expense of Thailand's Petlampun in his most recent fight, bouncing back from a lone majority decision defeat he endured at the hands of Chokpreecha last July. Ondash knows that victory against an established star will take him closer to the dream of winning a $100,000 contract with ONE Championship. He said: '(Following my defeat) I won the next fight by knockout. So, if I had won that fight, even if by decision, I could have gotten the contract. But I am just focusing on my next fight. I want to win.' ONE Friday Fights 112 begins at 3:30 p.m. KSA on Friday, June 13, and will be broadcast live via beIN SPORTS.
