Danial Williams (Thai: แดเนียล วิลเลียมส์, born June 13, 1993), is a Thai-born Australian professional Muay Thai fighter, kickboxer, and mixed martial artist currently signed to ONE Championship, where he competes in the Strawweight division.

Background

Williams was born on June 13, 1993, in Phan district, Chiang Rai province, Thailand to an Australian father and Thai mother. He came to Australia when he was eight months old.

Williams was a shy child whose mixed heritage always made him feel like a bit of an outcast. He wasn't like his school friends in Australia, or like his family in Thailand, and he struggled to find his place.[2]

Muay Thai & Kickboxing career

Early career

Williams faced Aaron Leigh for the CMT Super Bantamweight Championship at Caged Muay Thai 3 on July 6, 2013. He won the fight by a fourth-round knockout.[3]

Williams faced Shota Takiya in the 2015 K-1 World GP 2015 Super Bantamweight Tournament quarterfinals, held on April 19, 2015. He lost the fight by majority decision.[4]

ONE Championship

Williams made his ONE Super Series debut against ONE Flyweight Champion Rodtang Jitmuangnon in a non-title fight at ONE on TNT 1 on April 7, 2021.[5][6] Williams lost the back-and-forth bout by unanimous decision.[7] The fight was later named ONE Super Series Fight of the Year by ONE Championship.[8]

Williams was scheduled to face Rui Botelho on March 25, 2023, at ONE Fight Night 8.[9] However, Williams replacing Rodtang Jitmuangnon faced Superlek Kiatmuu9 for the ONE Flyweight Kickboxing World Championship.[10] He lost the bout via knockout in the third round.[11]

Williams faced Jonathan Di Bella for the ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Championship on October 7, 2023, at ONE Fight Night 15.[12] He lost the bout via unanimous decision.[13]

Williams faced Thongpoon P.K.Saenchai on December 7, 2024, at ONE Fight Night 26.[14] He lost the fight via technical knockout in round two.[15]

Returning to MMA, Williams faced Lito Adiwang on February 17, 2024 at ONE Fight Night 19, losing the fight via unanimous decision.[25]
