Lenny Blasi weathers Worapon Lukjaoporongtom in Bangkok, wins unanimous decision to make it three straight at bantamweight

Lenny Blasi picked up his third consecutive win at bantamweight with a unanimous decision victory over the experienced Thai veteran Worapon Lukjaoporongtom in Bangkok at The Inner Circle 28. The bout served as the show’s central Muay Thai main event, matching an Italian challenger looking to keep building momentum against a tough, local-tested opponent known for pressure and durability.

According to the event coverage, Blasi’s performance was marked by composure and control through the early phases, then a decisive shift as the fight moved deeper into the second round. The reported turning point came after Blasi landed an eight-count in round two, a sequence that not only changed the immediate balance but also gave him a clearer path to win the scoring rounds that followed.

Worapon, as the more seasoned bantamweight opponent, had his moments and remained difficult to fully discourage, which is often the case when Thai veterans fight at high pace against international challengers. Still, the outcome reflected a broader advantage for Blasi across the full distance, culminating in a unanimous decision. In practical terms, a unanimous nod indicates that at least two judges (and in this case all) saw Blasi as the clearer winner overall, not simply the beneficiary of a single exchange.

The victory matters as a momentum marker inside ONE Championship’s bantamweight Muay Thai landscape. For Blasi, maintaining a streak indicates that his game plan is translating to fights with increasing stakes and with opponents who have the craft to survive early threats and stay dangerous later. For Worapon, even in defeat, the main-event slot itself reinforces his standing as a credible, high-level gatekeeper for contenders within the division.

Blasi’s third straight win also adds to the storyline of how ONE Championship’s bantamweight title picture develops from recurring main-event matchups. When a fighter string together wins at the top of a card, the organization typically takes notice because these results help shape the order of future matchups, whether that means pairing him with a higher-ranked contender or continuing to test him against increasingly proven opponents.

As for what happens next, Blasi’s performance in Bangkok sets up a more pointed question: can he repeat the same level of patience and tactical control when the opponent adjusts after seeing the eight-count turning point? In bantamweight Muay Thai, where finishing stretches can swing fights quickly, the ability to keep scoring even after a major moment often separates fighters who are winning from fighters who are building title runs.

Worapon’s role in the division is likely to remain relevant as well. Even without the result, his ability to reach the main event suggests he remains a fighter who can give contenders hard work and reveal whether they can handle pressure over time, not just strike in bursts.
