Su Bobang is the world's number one fighter in the 70 kg class today, and he has proved his strength to the fans in the past two years, and he has become a well-deserved king of the 70 kg class. However, in another ranking list of the ONE Championships, Su Bobang only ranked second, which is the ranking of Muay Thai featherweights (70 kg).
One Championship Kickboxing, Muay Thai Featherweight Rankings
The current champion of the class is Thai Peter Morak, with Jamal from Russia in first place, followed by Subobang. The bottom three are Joe Nathaut, Sitchai and Sammy Sana. Peter Morakot participated in the first kickboxing and featherweight eight-man battle of the ONE Championship in 2019, which was known to Chinese martial arts fans, and his two big battles with George at that time also caused a hot discussion. After that, Peter Morak continued to fight and successfully won the golden belt of Muay Thai in this level. In the later defensive battle, Peter Morak's victory over Yasankle also impressed the martial fans.
Although Peter Morak is the current champion, his play style is more oily and his style of play is not radical, so he has not been favored by martial arts fans. With the strong rise of Subobang in the ONE Championship, many people also very much want to see Subobang can attack the ONE Muay Thai golden belt and fight with Peter Morak. But Subobang hasn't played under Muay Thai rules for a long time, and it's not clear if he'll be able to beat Peter Morak to unify these two tiers of the ONE Championship. But then, the two of them each had a hard battle to fight.
On 20 May, Peter Morak will face the latest gold belt to defend his title against Jimmy Vinnot from France. Vinnot is also a famous player who beat Yao Wei Chai last year to win the WMC Muay Thai 70kg gold belt. This time against Peter Morak, it was also the debut of the Vinott ONE Championship.
Peter Morak has not played the ONE Championship since the completion of the defending battle in September 2020, but he still maintains a certain frequency of competitions and has crossed over into the field of boxing in recent years. In 2021, Peter Morak played three consecutive boxing matches on Thai soil, winning all of them, including two TKO. At the same time, he also played a Muay Thai match and won by judgment. This time, in the face of Vinott's challenge, can Peter Morak successfully defend his title?
Su Bobang's next challenge is the defending battle of one kick boxing and gold belt, and the opponent is the "god of war" Arazov, who we are very familiar with, but the time of this match has not yet been announced. In the last game, Arazov's victory over Sitichai made the fans shine. This time, Arazov's domineering attack, how will Subobang respond. In the future, if Subobang can beat Arazov, he is also very likely to attack the goal of the double. Dear heroes, do you think Su Bobang can unify the two major fields of ONE featherweight kickboxing and Muay Thai boxing?
