Bangkok, Thailand: The largest sports media property in Asian history, ONE Championship™ (ONE), announced today that the mixed martial artists competing at ONE: KINGDOM OF CHAMPIONS are ready for all the action which takes place tomorrow evening, 27 May, at the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand. Competitors faced off against one another ahead of fight night, which promises to be an amazing spectacle of world-class MMA action. Undefeated ONE Strawweight World Champion Dejdamrong Sor Amnuaysirichoke is set to defend his title against unbeaten Japanese challenger Yoshitaka Naito in a 5-round title tiff.

Dejdamrong Sor Amnuaysirichoke, ONE Strawweight World Champion, stated: “It has always been my dream to compete at home in front of all of my family and friends, in front of the people of Thailand. I am grateful to ONE Championship for giving me the opportunity to live my dream and honoring me as champion. This fight means so much to me and I promise to give my all inside the cage.”

Yoshitaka Naito stated: “I am coming into this fight as the challenger, as the underdog, in front of my opponent’s hometown crowd. But in my professional career, I have not known defeat and I plan to keep it that way on fight night.
