3 Fighters Who Have a Chance of Their Lifetime at ONE Fight Night 8

ONE Championship returns to Singapore this Friday, March 24, with ONE Fight Night 8 on Prime Video. Set to air live in U.S. primetime, the stacked bill is packed with high-stakes martial arts bouts as a number of ONE’s biggest stars fight their way to glory and gold. 

Now just a day away from this massive event, here are three fighters who could propel their careers with a massive win on Friday night.

#1 Danial Williams 

Australian star “Mini T” Danial Williams will soon find himself in the biggest opportunity of his career, as he battles Superlek “The Kicking Machine” Kiatmoo9 for his ONE Flyweight Kickboxing World Title in the main event.

A win for the 29-year-old over an established pound-for-pound talent like Superlek would certainly gain him some much-needed acclaim as one of the world’s best strikers.

Although his past four appearances in the Circle have been MMA bouts, “Mini T” has plenty of high-level striking experience and is a real threat to take the flyweight kickboxing crown by surprise.

 #2 Itsuki Hirata 

In women’s atomweight MMA action, the 23-year-old Itsuki “Android 18” Hirata could punch her ticket to a World Title shot with a victory over the #2-ranked Ham “Hamzzang” Seo Hee. The Japanese phenom has less than a quarter of the professional experience of her veteran opponent, but certainly has the skills and killer instincts to take out “Hamzzang.”

Watch for Hirata to utilize her world-class judo and grappling talents to force the South Korean out of her element as she tries to secure the biggest win of her still-young career.

#3 Keito Yamakita 

Finally, undefeated Japanese sensation Keito Yamakita will square off with former ONE Strawweight World Champion Alex “Little Rock” Silva in an MMA showdown that pits a well-established veteran against a promotional newcomer. With his pristine 7-0 record and top-tier wrestling skills, the 26-year-old comes to ONE with plenty of hype behind him.
