ONE SAMURAI 4 features major title bouts in Tokyo

ONE Championship is hosting ONE SAMURAI 4 at the Ariake Arena in Tokyo, Japan. The event features several high-stakes championship bouts across kickboxing, Muay Thai, and MMA.

In the main event, Bantamweight Kickboxing World Champion Jonathan Haggerty will defend his title against Hiroki Akimoto. The co-main event features Atomweight Muay Thai World Champion Nadaka Yoshinari, who is set to face Malaysian contender Rifdean Masdor. Although Masdor failed a hydration test, which disqualified him from competing for the world title, negotiations for a catchweight bout were discussed.

The fight card also includes a Featherweight Kickboxing Tournament semifinal between Masaaki Noiri and Mohammad Siasarani, as well as a match between Shintaro Matsukura and Sinsamut Klinmee. The event will also feature a Hall of Fame ceremony for Japanese martial arts icon Takeru Segawa.
