French striker Enzo Clarisse is coming in hot, and he has a clear and aggressive blueprint for how Friday night unfolds.
The 22-year-old faces Malaysian-Thai phenom Adam Sor Dechapan in a strawweight Muay Thai showdown in the main event of The Inner Circle on Friday, May 8, airing live exclusively on live.onefc.com from the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
Clarisse arrives at this contest with a 21-7 career record and a mixed 2-2 promotional slate since making his ONE debut in 2025. The Team Mehdi Zatout representative is a high-pressure striker known for his spinning back elbows and relentless forward aggression.
His most recent win came via second-round knockout, a result that reaffirmed his finishing power and sent a clear message to the rest of the division about what he is capable of when everything clicks into place.
The plan for May 8 is simple, direct, and characteristic of everything Clarisse is about as a fighter.
He said:
âMy game plan is to try to hit him with my fists. I am going to go for the big target, which is the liver shot, and vary between the body and the head with my hands.â
Executing that game plan inside Lumpinee Stadium in front of a passionate Bangkok crowd requires more than just technical preparation.
He has spent significant time in camp ensuring his conditioning matches his ambition, leaning on his coaching team and a trusted training partner to arrive in the best shape of his career.
He said:
âYes, I prepared for this. I worked a lot on my cardio for this fight. I worked on this with my coach. And Antar Kacem also helped me a lot for this fight. He was always with me.â
The fight is scheduled for May 8 at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
Enzo Clarisse has a career record of 21 wins and 7 losses.
Clarisse has a mixed record of 2 wins and 2 losses since his debut in ONE Championship in 2025.

Enzo Clarisse has a clear picture of what Adam Sor Dechapan will bring on fight night, and he has spent his entire camp preparing the answers.
The French striker expects his opponent to try to control the range and manage the fight on his own terms. So, the 22-year-old star intends to seize the initiative from the first exchange and never let go, turning this into something far more explosive.
Clarisse said:
âAdam will try to handle me, I think. But I donât think heâs going to make it. Iâm going to be aggressive from the first round, thatâs for sure. Itâs going to be war.â
Adamâs kicking game is one of the most dangerous weapons Clarisse will need to navigate. The Malaysian-Thai phenom carries powerful legs and the ability to punish opponents who leave themselves open.
The Team Mehdi Zatout product has worked extensively on both sides of that equation, developing a tighter guard and sharper defensive reflexes without sacrificing the aggression that makes him such a dangerous opponent.
He explained:
âI prepared a lot of my dodges with my coach. I will dodge all his punches and kicks. However, this time Iâm going to be aggressive with an improved defense. So, Iâm going to have a higher guard.
âAdam got quite good kicks, good legs. But I have prepared to avoid all the leg kicks.â
