Nong-O Gaiyanghadao retained his ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Championship, defeating Alaverdi Ramazanov in a brutal battle in the main event of ONE: Fists of Fury III.

Nong-O was dominant throughout the contest, utilising his superior striking skills and experience to outclass the Russian challenger.

The Thai star landed several hard kicks to Ramazanov's legs, reducing his mobility and power. Nong-O also connected with a number of clean punches, bloodying Ramazanov's face.

In the third round, Nong-O dropped Ramazanov with a devastating right hand. The Russian managed to get back to his feet, but Nong-O was relentless in his pursuit of a finish.

The Thai champion landed another hard right hand in the fourth round, which sent Ramazanov crashing to the canvas once more. This time, the referee waved off the contest, awarding Nong-O a TKO victory.

Nong-O's victory was his second successful defence of his ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Championship. He remains undefeated in ONE Championship, with a perfect record of 5-0.

The 34-year-old Thai is one of the most accomplished strikers in the world, and his victory over Ramazanov further cemented his legacy as one of the greats.

Ramazanov, meanwhile, suffered his first defeat in ONE Championship. The 26-year-old Russian is known for his toughness and durability, but he was outclassed by Nong-O in this fight.

Despite his defeat, Ramazanov showed his fighting spirit and determination. He never gave up, even when he was clearly outmatched. He will be looking to bounce back from this loss and continue his development as a fighter.

The main event of ONE: Fists of Fury III was a clash between two of the world's best strikers. Nong-O Gaiyanghadao proved to be too much for Alaverdi Ramazanov, as he dominated the fight from start to finish.
