ONE Championship has confirmed two compelling MMA matches for the organization’s first U.S. primetime event of 2026, as ONE Fight Night 39 takes place on Friday, January 23, at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

The card also features #3-ranked strawweight contender Bokang Masunyane, who seeks redemption against Japanese newcomer Ryohei Kurosawa following consecutive losses to top-shelf competition.
