ONE Championship has revealed the full lineup for its fifth show of the year, ONE: LIGHTS OUT on Friday, 11 March.
There are a plethora of exciting bouts emanating from the Singapore Indoor Stadium on top of the main event showdown between Garry “The Lion Killer” Tonon and Thanh Le and the co-main event world bantamweight tie between Bibiano “The Flash” Fernandes and John “Hands of Stone” Lineker.

Before these four superstars take their skills to the Circle, former ONE Featherweight World Champion Martin “The Situ-Asian” Nguyen will make his return. The Australian-Vietnamese star will face off against promotional newcomer Kirill Gorobets in a featherweight bout.
Nguyen is hoping to put an end to his losing streak, but he will have it all to do as his opposite number is on a nine-fight winning run, including an impressive 72 percent finishing rate.
Another division king also makes his return at ONE: LIGHTS OUT. Fifth-ranked strawweight athlete Alex Silva squares off versus Indonesia’s Adrian Mattheis in a strawweight tilt.
Both martial artists are keen to return to the winning column after suffering a defeat in their last outings. A finish is all but guaranteed in this epic tie as Silva owns the record for most submission wins in the division, while his Indonesian counterpart shares a joint record for most knockouts with four.

Mattheis’ national compatriot will also feature on this show. That man is none other than Eko Roni Saputra. The Evolve MMA wrestling specialist will put his five-match-winning run on the line against Chan Rothana.
The latter has knocked out two Indonesian stars in the past, and he will fancy his chances against the young phenom. It would be no easy task, but the Cambodian fighter is fired up to make this his best year yet.
Prajanchai-Lasiri will not happen at ONE: LIGHTS OUT
In addition to that, the ONE Strawweight Muay Thai World Title bout between Prajanchai PK.Saenchai and #3-ranked Joseph “The Hurricane” Lasiri has been moved to another date.
The Italian challenger sustained an injury during his training camp and was forced to pull out from the tie. As a result, the Thai world champion will not be competing at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Friday, 11 March.
