Rajadamnern World Series returns to Rajadamnern Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand on Saturday 29th August for one of the most compelling nights of Muay Thai the bantamweight division has produced this year.
Reigning Rajadamnern Stadium Bantamweight World Champion Jaroensook Boonlanna Muay Thai puts his belt on the line against interim champion Pangtor Por Lakboon in a unification main event that carries significant history between the two fighters.

Jaroensook Boonlanna Muay Thai vs Pangtor Por.Lakboon — Rajadamnern Stadium Bantamweight World Championship Unification
This fight is about more than two titles. Pangtor has already beaten Jaroensook. Their meeting in September 2024 went the challenger’s way, and that result gives this rematch a dimension that few unification bouts carry — the interim champion arrives with first-hand proof that he can beat the man holding the belt.
Jaroensook enters as the reigning champion on a three-fight winning streak. He successfully defended his title against Kazuki Osaki at the 80th Anniversary show, then stopped Captainteam in the third round with a knee to the head in February 2026, before finishing Puenyai with an elbow in the second round in May. The champion is in dominant form and fighting at the peak of his powers.
Pangtor arrives as interim champion after stopping Saotho in July 2026 to claim the vacant interim belt. The Por.Lakboon fighter is a southpaw with a strong Muay Khao base, lethal through knees, body attacks and elbows. His finishing ability has been on full display throughout 2026. He also had a victory over Saotho — a fighter nobody else had managed to stop in the division — and carries a previous win over Jaroensook into the rematch.
One undisputed Rajadamnern Stadium Bantamweight World Champion will emerge. Five rounds at Rajadamnern Stadium to settle it.
Egor Bikrev vs Petchsamui
Rajadamnern Stadium Lightweight World Champion Egor Bikrev returns to action in a three-round catchweight contest at 137 lbs. With no title on the line, the shortened format removes any margin for a measured start.
Bikrev, who famously stopped Sangmanee in just 48 seconds to claim the lightweight title, brings his explosive knockout power against an experienced former champion in Petchsamui, who has every incentive to cause problems early.
Karl Tannian vs Zsombor Nemeth
Irish lightweight Karl Tannian brings an unbeaten RWS record into Saturday’s card against Hungarian challenger Zsombor Nemeth. An unbeaten run at Rajadamnern Stadium creates its own pressure — every successive win raises the profile of being the man who ends it. Nemeth arrives with a significant opportunity to make a statement in the division. Tannian arrives equally motivated to prove the run is no accident.
