Regian Eersel and Alexis Nicolas Set for Epic Trilogy Clash at ONE Fight Night 30

A thrilling trilogy showdown is set to unfold as Regian Eersel and Alexis Nicolas battle for the ONE Lightweight Kickboxing World Title at ONE Fight Night 30: Kryklia vs. Knowles. The highly anticipated bout takes place on Friday, April 4, inside Bangkok, Thailand’s iconic Lumpinee Stadium.


Eersel and Nicolas have quickly established one of the most compelling rivalries in striking history, and this third encounter will determine the ultimate champion in their series.


The rivalry began in 2024 when Nicolas made his promotional debut. At the time, Eersel was an unstoppable force in the division, holding 11 consecutive wins in ONE Championship while reigning as both the kickboxing and Muay Thai world champion. His dominance included victories over Dmitry Menshikov, Sinsamut Klinmee (twice), and Arian Sadikovic.


However, Nicolas wasn’t intimidated by Eersel’s credentials. In their first meeting at ONE Fight Night 21, the undefeated Frenchman shocked the world by outstriking Eersel across five rounds, capturing the kickboxing title and handing “The Immortal” his first loss in seven years.


Eersel, determined to reclaim his throne, came back stronger in their rematch six months later. Delivering one of his most complete performances, he outpaced and outclassed Nicolas for 15 minutes, earning a unanimous decision victory and regaining his title.


Now, with the series tied at one win apiece, the stakes have never been higher. Their third encounter at Lumpinee Stadium will serve as the ultimate decider, with bragging rights, legacy, and championship gold on the line.


Before his loss to Nicolas, Eersel was considered one of the pound-for-pound best in kickboxing. His defeat momentarily shook his standing, but with a chance to reassert his dominance, the Surinamese star is set for a defining moment in his career.


Will Eersel solidify his legacy, or will Nicolas prove that his initial victory was no fluke? Fans can expect an explosive and high-stakes battle as these two warriors settle the score once and for all.
