Overview
- The welterweight MMA bout takes place Friday at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, airing on Prime Video at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT for U.S. viewers.
- U.S. prospect Chase Mann enters 6-0 in his ONE debut and says he is hunting a first-round stoppage rather than a decision.
- Tongan-Australian Isi Fitikefu rides a two-fight ONE winning streak and guarantees he will finish Mann by knockout or submission.
- Fitikefu, a BJJ black belt with six stoppages in nine wins, trains out of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Smeaton Grange alongside elite partners including Robert Whittaker.
- The matchup is framed as an immediate measuring stick, with a strong showing potentially fast-tracking the winner—especially Fitikefu—toward welterweight contention under champion Christian Lee.
