The card features grappling, kickboxing, mixed martial arts, and Muay Thai bouts to showcase the best talent from each sport. The event also features a mixed rules bout between ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Champion Rodtang Jitmuangnon and Demetrious Johnson.

The Singapore Indoor Stadium will be rocking at ONE X with the year’s best martial arts event.
