Lusail Sports Arena in Qatar will be rocking with another ONE Championship event in 2025.
In a press release, ONE announced it would return on Thursday, Feb. 20, with ONE 171: Qatar with official presenting partner Visit Qatar and media partner Media City Qatar.
The organization debuted in Qatar with ONE 166 in Mar. 2024. The event featured three outstanding championship battles, including Anatoly Malykhin’s historic win over Reinier De Ridder, which made him the sport’s first-ever simultaneous three-division king.
Fans should expect more of the same with the upcoming lineup for ONE 171.
Per the press release, fans should expect multiple title tilts and ONE’s signature array of martial arts action across MMA, Muay Thai, kickboxing, and submission grappling.
“After a successful event in Qatar last March, ONE Championship will return to Lusail Sports Arena in early 2025 for another showcase of the world’s best martial arts talent. We’re putting together another explosive card that fans will not want to miss, featuring our elite World Champion athletes across all of our martial arts disciplines,” ONE Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong said.
“We can’t wait to ignite Qatar with hope, strength, dreams, and inspiration once again. I would like to personally thank Visit Qatar and Media City Qatar for giving us another opportunity to make history.”
ONE is kicking off 2025 with a bang, as ONE 170 emanates from the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand, and ONE 171 returns to Qatar. The two massive events will set the tone for another huge year in martial arts action.
Headlining bouts and global broadcast details will be announced in the coming weeks. Fans looking for early access tickets can sign up for information at visit.onefc.com/one171.
