Ryujin Nasukawa Debuts With Second‑Round Stoppage at Lumpinee

The second‑round stoppage on Friday at Lumpinee signals a new era for Japanese kickboxing by showing how ONE uses Lumpinee cards to fast‑track talent.

Overview

  • Ryujin "Shindo" Nasukawa stopped Thongpoon PK Saenchai by referee stoppage in the second round of their strawweight kickboxing bout on Friday, July 24, announcing his ONE promotional debut with a knockout finish.
  • Panpayak Jitmuangnon won the co‑main event by unanimous decision over Anuar Cisneros, preserving his unbeaten run under ONE kickboxing rules and strengthening his contender standing.
  • The Inner Circle 23 main event was contested for the vacant ONE Interim Strawweight Muay Thai World Title between Sam‑A Gaiyanghadao and Aliff Sor Dechapan on the same Lumpinee card.
  • ONE Friday Fights 163 featured Pompet PongSuphan PK against Nat Khat Min in a flyweight Muay Thai main event where ONE publicly offered a reported US$100,000 main‑roster contract to an unsigned standout, a payout that multiple outlets described but that lacks independent public verification.
  • Ryujin arrives with ISKA and two RISE titles and has said he plans to chase belts in multiple divisions, a result that could shift contender hierarchies and accelerate ONE’s recruitment of international talent through paired Lumpinee Inner Circle and Friday Fights cards.
