ONE Friday Fights 167 takes over Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, on Friday, August 21, 2026, with another international lineup of Muay Thai, kickboxing and MMA fights.
However, the action actually begins before ONE Friday Fights 167.
The Inner Circle 27 opens the day from the historic Bangkok venue before ONE Friday Fights 167 follows later in Asia primetime.
That gives martial arts fans hours of fights featuring athletes from Thailand, Myanmar, Japan, Australia, Europe and beyond.
The main ONE Friday Fights attraction sees Dedduanglek Torfunfarm face Kongsuk Sitsarawatsuer in a bantamweight Muay Thai rematch, while Songchainoi Kiatsongrit meets Banluelok Sitwatcharachai in The Inner Circle 27 headliner.

Who Is Fighting in the ONE Friday Fights 167 Main Event?
Dedduanglek Torfunfarm faces Kongsuk Sitsarawatsuer in the bantamweight Muay Thai main event.
It is not their first meeting.
Dedduanglek won their previous encounter, giving Kongsuk an immediate storyline heading into the August 21 rematch.
Both men also enter with momentum.
Dedduanglek has collected consecutive unanimous decision victories, while Kongsuk has responded with back-to-back stoppage wins.
That gives the rematch very different circumstances from their first meeting.
Dedduanglek already has a ONE Championship contract and will look to reinforce his position with another victory.
Kongsuk, meanwhile, has the opportunity to avenge the previous loss while continuing his push toward a US$100,000 ONE Championship contract.
Why Does ONE Friday Fights 167 Matter for the Fighters?
The Friday Fights format has become an important pathway for emerging martial artists trying to secure a place on ONE Championship’s global roster.
Many athletes competing on these cards are fighting for more than a single victory.
Strong performances can eventually lead to a US$100,000 contract with ONE Championship.
That changes the stakes.
A knockout or dominant performance at Lumpinee Stadium can potentially move a fighter from the weekly Friday Fights series onto much larger ONE Championship cards.
ONE Friday Fights 167 once again gives fighters from several countries that opportunity.

What Time Is ONE Friday Fights 167 in Jamaica?
For viewers in Jamaica, the schedule is straightforward.
The Inner Circle 27: 6:30 AM on Friday, August 21

That makes this a Friday morning card for Jamaican fight fans.
Where Is ONE Friday Fights 167 Taking Place?
Both events take place at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
Lumpinee is one of the best-known venues in Muay Thai history and has become a regular home for ONE Championship’s weekly Friday Fights series.
The setting also gives these prospect-heavy cards a distinct identity.
Fighters are not simply competing on another studio show.
They are fighting inside one of the sport’s most recognizable venues while attempting to earn larger opportunities.
Which ONE Friday Fights 167 Fight Should Fans Watch?
Dedduanglek vs Kongsuk carries the clearest storyline.
It is a rematch.
Dedduanglek already owns a victory over Kongsuk.
Kongsuk now enters with consecutive stoppage wins and another chance to defeat the man who beat him before.
A victory would do more than settle the score.
It could strengthen Kongsuk’s argument for the six-figure ONE Championship contract that many Friday Fights athletes are chasing.
However, the MMA fights also make this card different from a traditional Muay Thai event.
Nauris Bartoska vs Patrick Hill and Jason Seddoh vs Gouru Kawasaki give MMA fans something to follow among the striking-heavy lineup.
Why Is ONE Friday Fights 167 Different From a Regular ONE Event?
ONE Friday Fights cards serve a slightly different purpose from major ONE Fight Night events.
They combine established fighters with rising prospects.
They also feature several martial arts disciplines on the same card.
On August 21, fans will see:
Muay Thai
Kickboxing
MMA
There is also the added pressure of fighters attempting to earn contracts and establish themselves within the organization.
That can make these fights unpredictable.
Some competitors are appearing in front of the global ONE audience for the first time.
Others may be only one major performance away from changing their careers.
What Should Fans Know Before ONE Friday Fights 167?
August 21 is effectively a double event from Bangkok.
The Inner Circle 27 starts the action early.
ONE Friday Fights 167 follows.
Songchainoi Kiatsongrit and Banluelok Sitwatcharachai headline the opening card before Dedduanglek Torfunfarm and Kongsuk Sitsarawatsuer close the second show with their bantamweight Muay Thai rematch.
Between them, fighters from multiple countries compete across three different combat sports.
For some, August 21 is another fight.
For others, it could be the performance that moves them significantly closer to ONE Championship’s global roster.
