ONE Friday Fights 168 went down on Friday at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, with bantamweight and flyweight Muay Thai headlining a card that streamed live in Asia primetime.
Wuttikrai Wor Chakrawut of Thailand came into the main event carrying immense momentum.
Iranian striker Mohammad Habibpour pressed forward with relentless aggression from the first bell, but Wuttikrai kept his composure and worked behind clean counters. A short elbow in round one opened a cut on Habibpour’s face and established a pattern that ran through much of the fight, earning Wuttikrai the decision victory.
Habibpour came out fighting through blood in the final round, throwing everything he had left. Another heavy left hook landed right before the final bell. But the early damage Wuttikrai had built up proved too much to overcome on the scorecards.

Meanwhile, Brazil Aekmuangnon needed a response after back-to-back losses, and he delivered one in the co-main event.
Petphupa Aekpujean controlled the opening round with sharp right hands through the middle and accurate combination work, but Brazil absorbed everything and refused to give ground.
The fight turned in round two when Brazil timed Petphupa stepping forward aggressively and landed a downward right elbow that dropped him cleanly.
Petphupa beat the count and came back swinging in the final round, but the knockdown was decisive. All three judges sided with Brazil, lifting his record to 48-15.
