February 14, 2026 \u2013 Bangkok, Thailand: ONE Championship<\/a> (ONE) returned to the legendary Lumpinee Stadium with another explosive evening at ONE Fight Night 40: Buntan vs. Hemetsberger<\/a> II.<\/p>\n

In the main event, Austrian sensation Stella \u201cAlways Hungry\u201d Hemetsberger etched her name in the history books, edging out Jackie Buntan via split decision to capture the ONE Women\u2019s Strawweight Kickboxing World Title and become a two-sport ONE World Champion.<\/p>\n

The high-level chess match saw Buntan press forward behind sharp boxing combinations, while Hemetsberger utilized distance management and stinging leg kicks to compromise the Filipino-American\u2019s base. The pace continued with intensity in the third and fourth rounds, with the fighters exchanging their heaviest artillery at the center of the ring.<\/p>\n

The bout was even heading into the final frame, as both women traded powerful blows to sway the judges. Buntan connected with two high kicks and a snappy straight right, but Hemetsberger answered with timely combinations of her own to seal the razor-close victory.<\/p>\n

With the historic win, \u201cAlways Hungry\u201d now reigns as the undisputed queen of the strawweight division in both Muay Thai and kickboxing.<\/p>\n

In the co-main event, Scottish knockout artist \u201cKing of the North\u201d Nico Carrillo captured the ONE Interim Featherweight Muay Thai World Championship with a gritty unanimous decision victory over Thailand\u2019s Shadow Singha Mawynn in an instant classic.<\/p>\n

The highly anticipated showdown began with both featherweights being patient and calculated with their attacks. However, momentum shifted in Shadow\u2019s favor through the middle rounds, as the Thai standout staggered Carrillo with a thunderous left hook in the second stanza and continued pressing forward with varied attacks in the third.<\/p>\n

\u201cKing of the North\u201d showcased his trademark toughness to turn the tide in a dramatic fourth frame, knocking Shadow down with a crisp right hand and then unloading powerful boxing combinations that left both men visibly tired entering the final round.<\/p>\n

Carrillo, however, powered through the exhaustion and poured on the pressure to seal the deal. With the win, he made history as Scotland\u2019s first ONE World Champion.<\/p>\n
