Nadaka Yoshinari, 24, is widely recognized as one of Japan’s most accomplished Muay Thai athletes. He began his professional career at 14 and has since won multiple world titles, including three at Rajadamnern Stadium and one at Lumpinee Stadium, making him the only non-Thai to achieve three Rajadamnern belts and one of the few foreigners to win at both major Thai venues. With his wins, he was the 2023 Muay Thai fighter of the year for MuayThai.com.
Nadaka Yoshinari is known for his southpaw stance, technical ability, and knockout power, attributes that have helped him amass over 60 professional wins, with more than 40 by knockout.

In his ONE Championship debut in March 2025, Nadaka stopped Rak Erawan with a left punch in the third round, demonstrating his finishing ability under the promotion’s small-glove rules.
Banluelok, 28, represents Thailand and fights out of the Sor Dechapan camp. He has quickly made an impact in ONE Friday Fights, winning all three of his bouts by knockout or technical knockout.
