A baby vs a meteorite, only in Thailand, baby!

Flyweight (Muay Thai) - Sherzod Kabutov vs Nakrob Fairtex
They’s just some lil guys. Some lil fellas
Atomweight (Muay Thai) - Yoddoi Kaewsamrit vs Songchainoi Kiatsongrit
Baby Yoddoi is a blatant cash grab by the marketing team.
Prelims
140 lbs (Muay Thai) - Yodlekpet “The Punch Destroyer” Or. Pitisak vs Silviu “Hitman” Vitez
Yodlekpet is 84-33, and was the 2015 Rajadamnern 135 lb, 2017 Lumpinee and Rajadamnern 135 lb and 2021 Rajadamnern 140 lb champion.

PUNCH DESTROYER
Bantamweight (Muay Thai) - Pongsiri PK Saenchai vs Ferzan Cicek
Hey Pong Siri, how do I punch a motherfucker’s lights out?
Middleweight - Harry “Kimura” Grech vs Arash Mardani
Grech is 3-0 in MMA, with 2 TKO and 1 submission win, thankfully by kimura. Mardani is 0-1 in MMA, having lost his pro debut by first round TKO. He does have some boxing (regular and bare knuckle) bouts on his record. Both guys are listed as heavyweight. Also, I don’t know what a “Harry Grech” is, but it sounds absolutely disgusting.
Flyweight (Muay Thai) - Ayad Albadr vs Elias Ghazali
Hrrmm, sounds like we got some more Nak Muay Farangs out here to stink up the joint at the beginning of the crowd.
Atomweight (Muay Thai) - Marie Ruumet vs Thai-Ngan Le
Hell yes, womens Muay Thai!
Bantamweight - Jakub “The Jeweler” Wayman vs “Rice Champ” Riccardo Catindig-Stagg
Wayman is 1-0 with a first round rear naked choke win back in April. Catindig-Stagg is 3-1 as an amateur, with 2 triangle chokes to his credit. I do not trust the Yakub, but a Britsh called “Riccardo Catindig-Stagg”? I trust even less.
Honestly, these Friday Fight events should only be Muay Thai bouts.
