VETERAN Myanmar fighter Aung La N Sang will feature in ONE Fight Night 36 scheduled for the morning of 4 October Myanmar Standard Time.
In what is expected to be his final fight, the 40-year-old will face Swedish opponent Kittstan. Although Aung La N Sang initially planned to retire after his bout with Turkish fighter Erdogan in February this year, he decided to take on one more challenge before stepping away from competition.
ONE Championship has arranged this farewell bout in Thailand, where he enjoys a large following. Aung La N Sang has fought under the ONE banner for over a decade, holding both the middleweight and light heavyweight world titles.
He reigned as middleweight champion from June 2017 to October 2020 and as light heavyweight champion from February 2018 to April 2021, marking the most successful period of his career. After relinquishing both belts, he contested seven middleweight bouts in pursuit of regaining a title but fell short.
ONE Fight Night 36, mainly targeting US audiences, will be held in Thailand at 6:30 am MST on 4 October (9 pm US Eastern Time on 3 October), featuring several world-class fighters. — Shine Htet Zaw/KZL
