Before the action gets underway at the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, we dive into five important questions that will be answered at ONE Fight Night 26.
#1 Will Ring Rust Affect Christian Lee In His Long-Awaited Return?
At the top of the bill, reigning two-division MMA kingpin will return to action after a two-year layoff to defend his ONE Lightweight MMA World Title against undefeated Turkish powerhouse .
Lee is recognized as one of the planet라이브 바카라 most talented and entertaining mixed martial artists, but fans and pundits are naturally speculating about how the 26-year-old knockout artist will fare after such a lengthy stay on the sidelines.

#2 Can Danielle Kelly Earn Redemption In World Title Rematch?
Former ONE Women라이브 바카라 Atomweight Submission Grappling World Champion will seek revenge against the woman who took her belt – nine-time IBJJF World Champion .
The pair first collided in August at . That night, the Brazilian scored a hard-fought, fast-paced decision victory over Kelly, handing the American star her first defeat in ONE.
Kelly is now on a mission to reclaim her 26 pounds of gold. Despite her foe라이브 바카라 lengthy list of accomplishments and status as one of the best BJJ competitors in history, the Philadelphia native is – and even submit – Bastos.
#3 Can Jarred Brooks Compete With The Best At Flyweight?

Confident and outspoken, it라이브 바카라 no surprise that Brooks is gunning for two-division glory. However, “Lightning” has to compete with the best flyweights on the planet.
Will “The Monkey God” prove his doubters wrong and stake his claim for a shot at the vacant flyweight MMA throne, or will McLaren give the strawweight superstar a rude welcome to the higher weight class?
#4 Can Rui Botelho Continue His Upset Streak And Crash The World Title Picture?
After hitting a rough patch to begin his ONE tenure, former European Kickboxing Champion has righted the ship and now finds himself on a stunning two-fight winning streak – now knocking on the door of a World Title shot.
At ONE Fight Night 26, he’ll square off with former ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Champion in a pivotal matchup that has fireworks written all over it.
On paper, the Portuguese striker is the underdog, but that hasn’t stopped him from scoring back-to-back upsets over former ONE World Title challenger and Thai fan favorite .
If Botelho can against Di Bella, he very well might find himself challenging for the ONE Strawweight Kickboxing World Title next.
#5 Will Gilbert Nakatani Become ONE라이브 바카라 Next American MMA Star?
California native will square off with #2-ranked flyweight MMA contender this Friday, and for Nakatani, it라이브 바카라 a massive chance to jump the queue and establish himself as a serious threat for the divisional crown – all in his promotional debut.
Following the retirement of former titleholder earlier this year, the ONE Flyweight MMA World Title now sits vacant.
