Outstanding “Phaya Hong Banchamek” defeats RISE QUEEN champion on Japanese soil at RISE 197 (Video)
On 26 April 2026, Phaya Hong Banchamek, also known as Chantakan Manobal and cousin of “Lisa,” Thailand’s first female K-1 champion and former Rajadamnern Stadium champion, proclaimed her greatness in Japan by defeating RISE QUEEN champion Mei Miyamoto on her home ground.
At the RWS x RISE Super Fight under the 48-kilogram kickboxing rules, the main event of RISE 197 in Tokyo, Japan, Chantakan Manobal “Phaya Hong Banchamek” faced Mei Miyamoto.
The result saw Phaya Hong Banchamek win by unanimous decision over Mei Miyamoto, with scores of 25-30, 26-30, and 25-30, marking a victory over the RISE champion on her own turf.
This victory came after Phaya Hong Banchamek made history as the first female champion at Rajadamnern Stadium (RWS) in late 2024, further cementing her status as Thailand’s number one female fighter, having previously won the K-1 World GP belt.
Phaya Hong Banchamek’s next goal may be to officially challenge for the RISE championship belt.
