Jonathan Di Bella

ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Champion Jonathan Di Bella seemed destined for martial arts greatness ever since he was a toddler.

At 2 years old, the Italian-Canadian began training at his family’s gym in Quebec, where he was mentored by his father, a two-time Kickboxing World Champion.

Di Bella eventually had his first kickboxing matchup when he was 10 years old, and at age 19 he turned professional. As a determined kickboxer, he began competing all over North America, including at the iconic Madison Square Garden.

Prior to entering the Circle, he racked up an undefeated 10-0 record in the striking arts and earned multiple regional and international titles. Di Bella also held his own under boxing rules, where he amassed a spotless record.

His crowning moment came in October 2022, when he faced Chinese superstar “The Fighting Rooster” Zhang Peimian for the vacant ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Title in his ONE Championship debut. After an intense and thrilling five-round battle, Di Bella emerged victorious, becoming the new divisional king and solidifying his family’s martial arts legacy.

Now he makes the first defense of his ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Title against gritty Thai-Australian Danial Williams at ONE Fight Night 15 on Prime Video on October 6.
