Nong-O Hama, the ONE bantamweight Muay Thai king, wants his opponents to be aware that he is not your average world champion. This is not to say that the notice has not yet been delivered.The Thai champion has had seven successful defences of his global title thus far since rising to the top of his category in February 2019. He is one of the most successful world title holders in ONE Championship history.
Nong-O has maintained his world title belt with ease, winning his last five stoppage defences.
When the Evolve MMA affiliate defends his championship against British challenger Jonathan Haggerty later this week, he hopes to further demonstrate his dominance in the bantamweight division.

On April 21 at the renowned Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, ONE Fight Night 9 on Prime Video will feature the title match as the main event.
Nong-O stated in a statement to ONE Championship that he will approach his forthcoming battle with the same mentality: to put up a stellar performance and prevail. “I’d like to make a statement to the younger boxers who want to win my World Championship,” he stated. I want to remind them to keep in mind their adversaries.
Nong-O had just recently defeated Russian Alaverdi Ramazanov in the third round of a title defence, therefore he had recently completed a quick turnaround.
But because he has never been one to back down from difficulties as a boxer and a champion, he has no issues with quick turnarounds.
Former ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion Jonathan Haggerty is out to become a two-division ONE world championship holder with a victory on fight night and is hoping to end the Thai champion’s outstanding title reign. ‘The General’ has won three straight matches coming into the match.
Fans in North America with a current Prime Video subscription will be able to watch ONE Fight Night 9 live and for no charge.
