ONE Championship: Chatri Sityodtong thinks March 17 Lumpinee card will ‘break all viewership records in Thailand’
- ONE Friday Fights 9 is biggest card at Lumpinee Stadium to date, with a Regian Eersel vs Sinsamut Klinmee Muay Thai title fight in main event
- Completed card will also feature appearances from Sam-A Gaiyanghadao, Panpayak Jitmuangnon, and Muangthai PK. Saenchai
ONE Championship chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong has revealed the complete line-up for the promotion’s March 17 event in Lumpinee Stadium, and he is clearly quite happy with the card his team has put together.
The ONE boss revealed the show’s finalised line-up on his Facebook page on Sunday, and promised the event inside the historic Bangkok arena will be a viewership home run in Thailand.
“I guarantee that ONE Friday Fights on March 17 at the legendary Lumpinee Stadium will break all viewership records in Thailand,” Chatri wrote.
The March 17 card will be headlined by a lightweight Muay Thai title fight, as Dutch champion Regian Eersel defends his belt against Thailand’s Sinsamut Klinmee.
It will be the pair’s second meeting in a row, after “The Immortal” defeated Sinsamut by split decision to claim the division’s vacant title late last year.
While the card’s headlining attraction has been public knowledge for some time, the remainder of the line-up was a mystery until Sunday, and there are certainly some big fights to look forward to.
Chief among the new additions is a strawweight Muay Thai fight between Thailand’s Sam-A Gaiyanghadao and Ireland’s Ryan Sheehan.
