ONE Fight Night 20: Jackie Buntan vs. Martine Michieletto added to stacked all-female event on International Women’s Day

The number one contender for the women’s strawweight Muay Thai world title will likely emerge once the dust settles between Jackie Buntan and Martine Michieletto.

The pair of world-class female strikers will be trading heavy leather in a 130-pound catchweight Muay Thai showdown at ONE Fight Night 20: Todd vs. Phetjeeja on Prime Video.

This all-female card will go down inside the fabled halls of Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, on March 8, which coincides with International Women’s Day.

A fan-favorite wherever she fights, Jackie Buntan has amassed a large following after going 5-1 run in the world’s largest martial arts organization.

Following her only setback against the strawweight Muay Thai queen Smilla Sundell, the Filipino-American racked up two straight victories against Amber Kitchen and most recently Diandra Martin.

Jackie Buntan looked as deadly as ever at ONE Fight Night 10 last year, needing less than a round to take out her Australian foe.

A third straight victory for the Boxing Works star may very well set her up with another collision course with ‘The Hurricane’ for 26 pounds of gold.

However, Martine Michieletto would love to put a wrench in those plans. ‘The Italian Queen’ proved she belongs on the grand stage with a masterful three-round beatdown of Amber Kitchen at ONE Fight Night 11 last year.

The 31-year-old, who represents Fighting Club Valle d’Aosta, could jump ahead of the pack if she upsets one of the most accomplished contenders in the women’s Muay Thai ranks.

ONE Fight Night 20 will air live in US primetime free for those with a Prime Video subscription in the United States and Canada.
