On Sunday, November 8, 2026, the 25th Suea Muay Thai Championship was held at the Channel 7 HD boxing stadium. Prior to the bouts, Virawan Phanitphajaman, Vice President of Marketing and Branding, honored both pairs of fighters with floral garlands for moral support. The main event contested the 25th Suea championship belt at 117 lbs between Thailand S. Rung Sak (red) and Mueang Chang S. Dechapan (blue). The two had met twice before, with each winning once by decision and once by knockout; both are southpaws. Thailand entered with sharp form, wielding a powerful left kick and sudden straight left. Mueang Chang is a durable fighter with tight knee work. In round one, Mueang Chang pressed forward but was caught by a left body kick followed by a clean left hook to the chin, dropping him for an eight-count. In round two, Thailand accelerated, landing combinations of straight punches and left elbows that sent Mueang Chang crashing unconscious for a full ten-count, giving Thailand a TKO victory in round two to claim the 25th Suea title. Thailand S. Rung Sak took home the championship belt, 600,000 baht, and five tons of Suea cement. Runner-up Mueang Chang S. Dechapan received 300,000 baht.

The third-place bout saw Mon Khao Cement Dee (red) face Hadsee Tinoykachin (blue) at 117 lbs; both are southpaws. Mon Khao had previously lost to Hadsee by third-round knockout. Mon Khao advanced with left kicks and body punches but could not penetrate Hadsee's timing. Hadsee countered with dual left kicks to Mon Khao's lead leg, causing visible instability by round three. In round three, Hadsee surged forward with left body kicks and a right front kick; Mon Khao could only cover up until he could no longer stand, prompting the referee to stop the fight for a TKO. Hadsee Tinoykachin secured third place and 150,000 baht, while Mon Khao Cement Dee took fourth with 100,000 baht.

After the event, an award ceremony was held on stage with Virawan Phanitphajaman and Piraphong Thirapetchapong (also known as Hia Chuan Kiatphet) presenting prizes. Thailand S. Rung Sak received the 25th Suea championship belt, 600,000 baht, and five tons of cement. Mueang Chang S. Dechapan earned 300,000 baht as runner-up, Hadsee Tinoykachin took 150,000 baht for third, and Mon Khao Cement Dee received 100,000 baht for fourth. The atmosphere at Channel 7 HD was electric, filled with cheers, traditional pi and drum music, and roaring excitement.
