ONE reveals full card for Friday Fights 166 in Bangkok

ONE Championship has unveiled the full fight card for ONE Friday Fights 166, set to take place at Bangkok’s iconic Lumpinee Stadium on August 14. The event will feature 11 mixed martial arts bouts, headlined by a featherweight matchup between top contenders Tawanchai P.K. Saenchai and Zhang Chenglong. Both fighters are coming off wins in their latest outings, with Tawanchai looking to build momentum for a potential title shot, while Zhang aims to prove he belongs among the division’s elite.

Lumpinee Stadium is more than just a venue—it’s a hallowed ground in the world of Muay Thai and mixed martial arts. ONE’s decision to host a fight night there reflects the organization’s push to deepen its roots in Thailand, the birthplace of Muay Thai, and to give local fighters a global stage. The stadium has hosted legendary bouts for decades, and ONE Friday Fights has become a staple of its modern-era fight calendar, blending traditional martial arts with the sport’s evolving global appeal.

The card is stacked with talent, including flyweight and bantamweight clashes that could shake up division rankings. Among the featured bouts is a flyweight fight between former ONE Flyweight World Champion Adriano Moraes and Eko Roni, a matchup that could reignite the rivalry that once defined the division. Moraes, now 40, remains a marquee draw, while Roni brings high-energy striking that could test the veteran’s grit. Other notable matchups include a welterweight encounter between Arian Sadyrbekov and Sinsamut Klinmee, two fighters known for their explosive finishes.

For ONE, this event is part of a broader strategy to grow its presence in Southeast Asia, where Muay Thai and mixed martial arts draw massive crowds. The Friday Fights series, which airs exclusively on Amazon Prime Video, has become a fan favorite for its fast-paced, high-stakes format. With lumpinee’s legacy behind it, this card could draw significant attention from both hardcore fight fans and casual viewers tuning in to see the next generation of stars. The August 14 event isn’t just another fight night—it’s a statement that the future of martial arts is being written in the heart of Bangkok.
