The 19th instalment of ONE Championship's weekly series goes down on Friday at Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok.
ONE Lumpinee 19 is headlined by an intriguing bantamweight Muay Thai showdown between ONE veteran Kulabdam Sor Jor Piek Uthai and rising Russian star Ilyas Musaev.
Former two-time Lumpinee Muay Thai world champion Kulabdam has been a staple of the division since 2019.
The heavy-handed Thai is looking for a return to the win column after a knockout loss to Muangthai PK Saenchai in March.
Musaev announced his arrival on the global scene in a big way in February, as the 21-year-old knocked out Panrit Lukjaomaesaiwaree in the second round at ONE Lumpinee 3.
The Team Mehdi Zatout representative also netted a 350,000 baht bonus for his performance on that night.
That momentum was halted the following month, however, due to a decision loss against teenage prodigy Yodphupa Wimanair -- the first loss of Musaev's professional career.
A pair of highly credentialled Thai fighters will make their ONE debuts in the co-main event.
Three-time former Lumpinee world champion Ronachai Tor Ramintra is set to face off with Aekkalak Sor Samarngarment in a clash of two tacticians.
Ronachai is a highly experienced southpaw who has amassed a career mark of 90-18-2 against some of the best fighters on the famous Bangkok stadium circuit.
Aekkalak will be looking to make a splash in his own right on the global stage.
The 24-year-old brings an impressive record of 55-13-2 punctuated by a successful run at Channel 7 Stadium in the Thai capital.
The international portion of the card is headlined by the debut of another Russian prospect in Elbrus Osmanov.
"The Dagestan Samurai" will face vastly experienced ONE newcomer Kaonar Sor Jor Thongprajin.
The undefeated Osmanov an- nounced his arrival in style at ONE Lumpinee 3, when he knocked out Paedsanlek PK Saenchai with a showstopping spinning back kick in the first round.
Another representative of Team Mehdi Zatout, Osmanov, 21, will face the biggest test of his burgeoning career against Kaonar.
The 32-year-old is a former Lumpinee world champion and was the last man to beat ONE megastar Rodtang Jitmuangnon.
Incredibly, Kaonar also has four wins over Yodlekpet Or Athchariya and three against Seksan Or Kwanmuang among his 180-47-3 record. He has also toppled Superball TDed99 on two occasions.
In MMA action, another Russian will debut as the undefeated Murad Umachiev attempts to take out two-time former Uzbek judo champion Ibragim Shaymanov, while Filipino star Drex Zamboanga will look to extend his winning run to five fights when he fights Chinese veteran Chen Rui.
The first bout starts at 7.30pm and Channel 7 will show live the programme from 8.30pm.
