This matchup is drawing attention due to the contrasting backgrounds and fighting styles of both athletes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Saemapetch Fairtex vs. Abdulla Dayakaev &#8211; Odds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Based on expert previews and the fighters\u2019 recent form, Abdulla Dayakaev is considered the favorite to win as you can find at <a href=\"https:\/\/bettoringreen.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bettoringreen.com<\/a>. Dayakaev\u2019s momentum, six wins in seven fights, including four knockouts since his ONE debut, has made him a rising star and a dangerous opponent. Analysts expect his aggressive, knockout-focused style to pose significant problems for Saemapetch, who is coming off two consecutive losses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Abdulla-Dayakaev-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10813\" srcset=\"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Abdulla-Dayakaev-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Abdulla-Dayakaev-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Abdulla-Dayakaev-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Abdulla-Dayakaev.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most predictions lean toward Dayakaev winning by knockout or technical knockout, given his recent string of highlight-reel finishes and the fact that both fighters are known for their striking power and willingness to engage. Saemapetch\u2019s experience and technical ability mean he cannot be counted out, and if he wins, it\u2019s more likely to be by decision after a tactical battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Saemapetch-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10816\" srcset=\"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Saemapetch-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Saemapetch-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Saemapetch-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Saemapetch-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Saemapetch-2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Saemapetch, a win would break his losing streak and reaffirm his status as a title contender. For Dayakaev, victory would solidify his place among the division\u2019s elite and potentially earn him a shot at a top-five opponent. With Saemapetch\u2019s experience and technical intelligence clashing against Dayakaev\u2019s youthful aggression and knockout power, fans are expecting an explosive and unpredictable fight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saemapetch Fairtex, a 30-year-old Thai veteran, is a former ONE World Title challenger with more than 125 career victories, nine of which have come in ONE Championship. Known for his technical striking and fearless approach, Saemapetch is a fan favorite who has spent years competing against the elite of the bantamweight Muay Thai division. However, he enters this fight on a two-bout losing streak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Abdulla Dayakaev, in contrast, is a 23-year-old Russian rising star from Team Mehdi Zatout. Since his ONE debut in November 2023, Dayakaev has quickly made a name for himself with six wins in seven fights, including four highlight-reel knockouts. His <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/programmes\/w3ct5q9j\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">aggressive<\/a>, power-punching style and recent body-shot KO of Alessio Malatesta have marked him as one of the division\u2019s most dangerous up-and-comers. This bout marks his U.S. primetime debut, and a win over a veteran like Saemapetch could catapult him into the bantamweight division\u2019s top tier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fans can expect an intense, action-packed bout at <a href=\"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/lumpinee-stadium\/\">Lumpinee Stadium<\/a> where both fighters will bring their best. While Dayakaev enters as the favorite due to his recent knockout streak and momentum, Saemapetch\u2019s veteran savvy ensures this fight will be far from predictable, making it a must-watch encounter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Done in 35 SECONDS \u23f1\ufe0f\u26a1 Abdulla Dayakaev scores a lightning-fast KO versus Sibmuen!\" width=\"563\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Cx6Fq-BIZx4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saemapetch Fairtex is set to face Abdulla Dayakaev in a&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":209958,"featured_media":10810,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[133,134],"class_list":["post-10809","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-muay-thai-101","tag-saemapetch-fairtex","tag-saemapetch-fairtex-vs-abdulla-dayakaev-odds-and-match-preview"],"taxonomy_info":{"category":[{"value":34,"label":"Muay Thai 101"}],"post_tag":[{"value":133,"label":"Saemapetch Fairtex"},{"value":134,"label":"Saemapetch Fairtex vs. Abdulla Dayakaev - Odds and Match Preview"}]},"featured_image_src_large":["https:\/\/muaythai.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Saemapetch-1024x683.webp",1024,683,true],"author_info":{"display_name":"Tim Wheaton","author_link":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/author\/calfkick\/"},"comment_info":"","category_info":[{"term_id":34,"name":"Muay Thai 101","slug":"muay-thai-101","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":34,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":74,"filter":"raw","cat_ID":34,"category_count":74,"category_description":"","cat_name":"Muay Thai 101","category_nicename":"muay-thai-101","category_parent":0}],"tag_info":[{"term_id":133,"name":"Saemapetch Fairtex","slug":"saemapetch-fairtex","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":133,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw"},{"term_id":134,"name":"Saemapetch Fairtex vs. Abdulla Dayakaev - Odds and Match Preview","slug":"saemapetch-fairtex-vs-abdulla-dayakaev-odds-and-match-preview","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":134,"taxonomy":"post_tag","description":"","parent":0,"count":1,"filter":"raw"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10809","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/209958"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10809"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10809\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10820,"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10809\/revisions\/10820"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10810"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10809"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10809"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/muaythai.com\/th\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10809"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
