ONE Championship is coming to Qatar for the first time on Friday, 1 March with ONE 166: Qatar! See the world’s greatest fighters in action across MMA, Muay Thai, kickboxing, boxing, and submission grappling as they electrify the Lusail Sports Arena.
ONE 166: Qatar will undoubtedly be remembered as one of the greatest showcases in ONE Championship history.
The first World Championship about set for this historic card features a highly anticipated rematch for MMA gold as ONE Strawweight MMA World Champion Jarred “The Monkey God” Brooks of the U.S. defends his title against former World Champion Joshua “The Passion” Pacio of the Philippines.
ONE 166: Qatar will also showcase a clash of heavyweight contenders as red-hot Iranian star Amir Aliakbari — who is riding a three-fight, three-knockout winning streak — takes on former ONE heavyweight king Arjan Bhullar of India. The event will also host a battle between former ONE Flyweight Submission Grappling World Title challengers as Yemeni-Saudi BJJ black belt Osamah Almarwai takes on former IBJJF World Champion Cleber Sousa of Brazil.
As a part of grassroots efforts to develop martial arts talent in the region, ONE will also host a Road to ONE submission grappling tournament during the ONE 166: Qatar fight week.
In addition to playing host to a pair of grappling super-fights, Qatar’s finest men’s and women’s grapplers will compete for US$100,000 contracts across multiple divisions to realize their dream of competing on ONE Championship’s global stage.
Tickets are available from QAR100-QAR8500.
