The stacked ONE 171 event takes place on Thursday, and MMA News has you covered with all the action!
ONE Championship is back in Qatar this week, where the Lusail Sports Arena will play host to a number of intriguing battles across four different sports.
Asia’s premier martial arts organization has brought with it to the Middle East a deep lineup, filled with champions and plenty of prominent names in MMA, Muay Thai, kickboxing and submission grappling.
And it’ll be championship stakes in the first of those sports that headlines ONE 171, with Filipino strawweight kingpin Joshua Pacio and American standout Jarred Brooks completing their trilogy by unifying the title.
While “The Monkey God” dethroned “The Passion” back in 2022, the rematch saw the belt return to Pacio after Brooks was disqualified for an illegal slam. Having since captured the interim strap with a first-round submission of Gustavo Balart last August, Brooks has his sights on regaining undisputed status.
Gold from a different sport will also be on the line in Qatar. After losing his Muay Thai strap in Denver last year, Jonathan Haggerty will look to keep hold of his remaining title by defending the bantamweight kickboxing championship against Chinese challenger Wei Rui.
Elsewhere, former two-division KSW champion Roberto Soldić makes his long-awaited return, Kill Cliff FC standout Aung La N Sang adds a 46th fight to his illustrious record, ex-bantamweight kingpin Bibiano Fernandes closes out his career with one last bout and submission grappling star Kade Ruotolo competes in MMA for the third time.
