Jonathan Di Bella makes the first defense of his ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Title against Zhang Peimian in the main event of The Inner Circle 22 on Friday, July 17. The card streams live for members from Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

Their first meeting at ONE 162 in 2022 was a genuine five-round war. Zhang, then only 19, led on all three scorecards heading into the final minute. Then Di Bella produced a clutch head kick knockdown to snatch the title.

Di Bella has since become a four-time World Champion with one of the highest strike outputs in ONE kickboxing history. Zhang, meanwhile, has rebuilt his own case for gold with wins over Ellis Badr Barboza and Thongpoon PK Saenchai, arriving four years older and considerably sharper.

Helena Crevar headlines a stacked co-main event

The co-main event brings a changing of the guard in women’s grappling. Helena Crevar returns for her second ONE Championship appearance against San Diego’s Paige Ivette Clymer in an openweight submission grappling contest.

Crevar is just 19 years old, ranked number one pound-for-pound in women’s no-gi grappling, and carries a staggering 355-7 record with 315 submission wins. Clymer is no footnote, the 33-year-old Legion American Jiu Jitsu black belt captured the 2026 ADCC West Coast Trials outright and arrives with real momentum of her own.

Rounding out the card, Yuki Yoza faces Ben Woolliss in bantamweight kickboxing, while Kompikart PK Saenchai and Sonrak Fairtex headline two further Muay Thai bouts.
