WATCH: The palpable intensity between Jonathan Di Bella and Prajanchai ahead of world title clash at ONE Friday Fights 68
The right to become ONE strawweight kickboxing world champion will be on the line in the main event of ONE Friday Fights 68 between Jonathan Di Bella and Prajanchai PK Saenchai on Friday, June 28. Happening inside the legendary Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, fans are set to be treated to an all-out display of striking excellence between Di Bella and the reigning ONE strawweight Muay Thai world champion.
As the event is only a few hours away, the former strawweight kickboxing king and Prajanchai met each other in a face-off that was oozing with tension. Di Bella posted the video on his Instagram account.
Di Bella and Prajanchai were set to fight this past April, but the former unfortunately failed the pre-fight hydration test amid an illness which led to him being stripped of the strawweight kickboxing world title and the fight ultimately being scrapped.
Now that he has sorted everything in his camp, Di Bella is fully prepared to reclaim the 26 pounds of gold that he never lost in the ring at the expense of the hometown favorite.

Claiming a statement victory against the great Prajanchai might be the goal for many fighters, but Jonathan Di Bella knows that all that matters is winning.
The Team Di Bella Kickboxing product told Bolasport:
"I don't look for a finish, you know. If it happens, it happens. I don't go for it, if I see an opening, I'll go and take whatever happens. I just want to give the fans a good fight and a good show and come out with a win no matter what."
