ONE Championship’s inaugural trip to the United States is less than five weeks away, and the promotion recently announced that the event has already sold out.
Asia’s largest martial arts organization will take ONE Fight Night 10: Johnson vs. Moraes III to the 1stBank Center in Denver, Colorado, on Friday, May 5.
The historic event will be headlined by the biggest fight in the promotion’s existence, as ONE flyweight world champion Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson defends his throne against former king and promotional mainstay Adriano “Mikinho” Moraes to complete the trilogy.
Also taking center stage is “Super” Sage Northcutt, who returns to action after a four-year hiatus when he meets Pakistani star Ahmed Mujtaba in a lightweight MMA bout.
ONE flyweight Muay Thai king Rodtang Jitmuangnon will also make his US debut when he defends his belt against Mexican striker Edgar Tabares in the evening’s co-main event.
Elsewhere, two of Europe’s heaviest hitters will face off in what is expected to be a welterweight slugfest, as Roberto Soldic and Zebaztian Kadestam collide in a potential world title eliminator.
In addition, Stamp Fairtex will also be making the trip to the States for her latest atomweight MMA fight, as she is set to collide with the native Alyse Anderson on the main card.
ONE’s big US debut will feature some of the world’s best martial artists across multiple disciplines on the night.
Colorado has long been a prestigious location in combat sports, having held the first major MMA event, UFC 1, 30 years ago, and it only feels fitting that ONE follows in those footsteps as it looks to stamp its mark on new territory.
