ONE SAMURAI 3: Nadaka Yoshinari and Shimon Yoshinari secure victories

At ONE SAMURAI 3 in Yokohama, several high-profile Muay Thai bouts took place. Nadaka Yoshinari secured a unanimous decision victory over Har Ling Om in his kickboxing debut, extending his unbeaten streak to 42 wins. Despite the win, Nadaka expressed frustration regarding his inability to finish the fight, noting a need to better pressure opponents who focus on survival. He is now preparing to defend his ONE Atomweight Muay Thai World Title against Rifdean Masdor on October 17 at ONE SAMURAI 4 in Tokyo.

In the flyweight Muay Thai division, Shimon Yoshinari secured a second-round knockout against Thai veteran Suablack Tor Pran49. Yoshinari finished the bout with a liver shot at 1:28 of the second round. The victory followed tension regarding Suablack missing the contracted weight and his perceived indifference toward the breach. Yoshinari stated that the veteran's nonchalant attitude served to increase his motivation during the fight.
