Ritu Phogat set to make ONE championship return in February

17 January 2020

India’s Ritu Phogat is all set to make her ONE championship return at ONE: King of the Jungle on February 28, 2020 in Singapore.

Ritu will be going for her second win in a row in her budding mixed martial arts career when she locks horns with China’s Wu Chiao Chen.

Phogat sizzled in her ONE Championship debut late last year when she finished Nam Hee Kim in the first round by technical knockout. Wu, meanwhile, will be looking to make an impact in her ONE Championship debut as well.

Elsewhere, ONE: King of the Jungle will be headlined by Stamp Fairtex and Janet Todd.

Stamp returns to ONE Super Series action to defend her ONE Atomweight Kickboxing World Title. After going 4-0 in mixed martial arts competition thus far, the 22-year-old phenom has taken the world by storm, captivating audiences across the globe with her striking prowess and unmistakable charm.

Stamp was most recently in action at ONE: A NEW TOMORROW at home in Bangkok, where she finished Puja Tomar via first-round technical knockout. Now she makes the quick turnaround to defend one of her prestigious belts.

Todd, a two-time Pan-American Muay Thai Champion, challenged Stamp in early 2019 for the inaugural ONE Atomweight Muay Thai World Championship, but ultimately fell short of victory after five close rounds. Despite the setback, Todd remains Stamp’s toughest test to date. The two now look to reprise their epic battle, this time with the ONE Atomweight Kickboxing World Championship on the line.

In the co-main event of the evening, reigning ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Champion Sam-A Gaiyanghadao of Thailand will take on Rocky Ogden of Australia for the ONE Strawweight Muay Thai World Title.

The event is set to take place at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on February 28, 2020.
