The highly anticipated debut of ONE Championship on Amazon streaming service Prime Video arrives on August 26, and on Tuesday, the promotion announced the event’s full line-up.
ONE 161 will take place at the Singapore Indoor Stadium in Kallang, Singapore, but will air in prime time in the U.S., with the card geared towards western audiences. The first event of a landmark deal between Amazon and ONE Championship is headlined by a previously announced rematch featuring Adriano Moraes putting his flyweight title on the line against Demetrious Johnson.
Also on the ONE 161 main card, in a flyweight Muay Thai grand prix semifinal, Rodtang Jitmuangnon will meet Savvas Michael. Brazilian heavyweight Marcus Buchecha will look to stay perfect against Kirill Grishenko, while a second heavyweight fight sees Amir Aliakbari take on Mauro Cerilli.
In the card’s co-main event, Nong-O Gaiyanghadao puts his bantamweight Muay Thai title on the line against Liam Harrison.
An abbreviated lead card at ONE 161 features just two fights, including Japanese women’s atomweight standout Itsuki Hirata. She faces off with China’s Lin Heqin.
