The Best Pictures From ONE Fight Night 40: Buntan Vs. Hemetsberger II
ONE Championship delivered an unforgettable night of world-class martial arts action over the weekend, as history was made inside Bangkok’s legendary Lumpinee Stadium.
This past Friday, February 13, ONE Fight Night 40 on Prime Video aired live in U.S. primetime and featured eight thrilling matches across MMA, Muay Thai, kickboxing, and submission grappling.
The card produced high-paced showdowns, a spectacular submission, and memorable knockouts that will be talked about for years to come.
In the main event, ONE Women’s Strawweight Muay Thai World Champion Stella “Always Hungry” Hemetsberger etched her name into the record books once again.
The Austrian striker dethroned ONE Women’s Strawweight Kickboxing World Champion Jackie Buntan via hard-fought split decision to capture two-sport glory.
After becoming Austria’s first-ever ONE World Champion last year, Hemetsberger cemented her legacy by becoming her country’s first-ever two-sport queen and only the third female striker to achieve the feat in ONE Championship history.
The co-main event delivered another crowning moment, as Scottish knockout artist “King of the North” Nico Carrillo outclassed hometown hero Shadow Singha Mawynn to claim the ONE Interim Featherweight Muay Thai World Title.
With the impressive victory, Carrillo has now secured a highly anticipated unification bout with divisional king Tawanchai PK Saenchai whenever the Thai megastar returns from injury.
