ONE Championship Fight Night 7 is set for Saturday morning in Bangkok, Thailand’s famous Lumpinee Stadium, and on Thursday night, the fighters set to compete at the event will undergo their pre-fight weight and hydration tests.
Headlining honours for the card will go to fight for the promotion’s vacant bantamweight MMA title, as John Lineker takes on his fellow Brazilian Fabricio Andrade in an anticipate rematch. Neither man is currently the champion, as Lineker was stripped of the belt for missing weight before their first fight, and the fight itself ended as a no contest due to a low blow.
The ONE Fight Night 7 co-main event will see Thai superstar Tawanchai PK. Saenchai attempt to defend his title against a man he has deemed his toughest challenger to date, Russian-born Turk Jamal Yusupov.

Earlier on the card, former two-division MMA champ Martin Nguyen will look to get back to winning ways against Brazil’s Leonardo Leonardo Casotti – his third opponent for the card after Shamil Gasanov and Razhab Shaydullaev were both ruled unable to fight.
The card will also feature an appearance from rising submission grappling star Danielle Kelly. The American BJJ black belt will meet Japanese MMA contender Ayaka Miura.
The Post is on location at the Rama Gardens Hotel Bangkok in Bangkok, where the stars of the card will imminently check their weight and hydration levels – their final hurdles before the fights themselves.
Stay tuned for complete results.
