Naito Swept the Scorecards Against Hyu at ONE SAMURAI 1
Taiki Naito defeated Hyu by unanimous decision in a flyweight kickboxing bout at ONE SAMURAI 1 on April 29, 2026. The contest took place at Ariake Arena in Tokyo as part of ONE Championship’s inaugural event in the SAMURAI series.
A Japanese kickboxing matchup
Naito and Hyu were paired in a non-title contest on a card that included world-championship fights in kickboxing, Muay Thai and MMA. Naito brought extensive ONE experience into the meeting, while Hyu looked to earn a major win on home soil.
The bout lasted the scheduled distance. Neither fighter scored a stoppage, so the outcome depended on the officials’ assessment of their effective striking and control across the rounds.
ONE’s result listing records Naito as the unanimous-decision winner. That confirms the decision for Naito while avoiding an unsupported claim about exact round-by-round scorecards.
Where the result fits
Naito’s victory added another result to an event that featured both quick finishes and longer technical bouts. The official page lists the contest as flyweight kickboxing, separate from the main event’s interim title fight.
Hyu’s name appears in ONE’s event results without a longer ring name. The article therefore uses the promotion’s own listing and does not assign him an unverified nickname or background detail.
The result is straightforward: Naito earned the judges’ unanimous verdict, and no title changed hands in this matchup. ONE Championship’s recap provides the direct source for both the winner and the bout category.
