Jonathan Di Bella delivered the finest performance of his career, outclassing Prajanchai over five rounds to claim a unanimous decision and unify the ONE strawweight kickboxing world championship. In the process, he avenged the lone blemish on his record.
From the outset, Di Bella set a blistering pace. His sharp footwork and lightning-fast combinations immediately forced Prajanchai onto the defensive, preventing the Thai star from settling into his rhythm. By the second round, the Italian-Canadian champion was firmly in control, peppering Prajanchai with clean punches while dictating the tempo of the fight. Prajanchai struggled to find openings, allowing Di Bella to pile up points on the scorecards.
Prajanchai refused to back down, pushing hard in the championship rounds and trading heavy leather in the pocket. Still, Di Bella held his ground, mixing crisp counters with airtight defense before finishing strong in the final minutes.
