From the Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, ONE Championship presents its first offering to kick off October with a bang with ONE Fight Night 36. On the main card, former two-division champion Aung La N Sang and Zebaztian Kadestam square off as the headlining MMA bout of the night. Also, previous company title holder Jarred Brooks goes to battle with Mansur Malachiev.
ONE Fight Night 36 Co-Main Event
A professional competitor since 2005, La N Sang has compiled a legacy for himself as one of the best fighters in the world after seizing both the ONE middle and light heavyweight belts and defending them multiple times. Walking into the final bout of his storied career, “The Burmese Python” poises himself for one last scrap as he prepares to walk off into the sunset in the ONE Fight Night 36 co-main event.
A staple of the ONE Championship roster since 2017, Kadestam gained notoriety by also scoring the company’s 185-lb throne after dusting the then undefeated Tyler McGuire. Fighting in his first tilt after more than two years, “The Bandit” is seeking to extend his current winning streak to four in a row.

ONE Fight Night 36: Jarred Brooks vs. Mansur Malachiev
A true veteran of the sport in every sense of the word, Brooks has appeared under the most prestigious banners on the planet, such as RIZIN, Bellator, and the UFC. Coming off of a disappointing outing after failing to gain the undisputed flyweight strap, “The Monkey God” is eager to get back on track towards title contention.
Unbeaten since late 2023, Malachiev is riding a fair bit of momentum with two back-to-back wins over Yosuke Saruta and Bokang Masunyane. Although this will be his first match of 2025, the Russian is ready to pick up where he left off and deliver another amazing performance.
