Malaysian Muay Thai Fighter Rifdean Masdor Secures Six‑Figure ONE Championship Contract

At The Inner Circle 19 in Bangkok’s Lumpinee Stadium on June 19, 23‑year‑old Malaysian atom‑weight Muay Thai star Rifdean “Magic Boy” Masdor stopped Iran’s Javad Mozafari in just 94 seconds. The knockout gave Masdor his seventh ONE Championship win and earned him a US$100,000 main‑roster contract, joining fellow Malaysians Johan “Jojo” Ghazali and Aliff Sor Dechapan as the only fighters from Malaysia with such deals.

Masdor thanked ONE founder Chatri Sityodtong, saying, “I’ve been waiting for this contract for three years. I got it because I worked hard.” With the contract in hand, he set his sights on the ONE Atomweight Muay Thai World Champion, Japan’s Nadaka, declaring his intent to train hard and challenge the reigning champion.

The six‑figure deal elevates the Sarawak‑born fighter to the global stage and marks a career‑defining milestone in ONE Championship’s Muay Thai division.
