Two more fights have been added to the ONE 167 card. Rodtang Jitmuangnon will be in kickboxing action at Impact Arena on June 8th while Itsuki Hirata also returns.

Rodtang has been matched with Denis Puric. He is expected to face Takeru in Japan later this year and his been described as a tune up fight for the Thai.

Puric presumably does not see things that way. The 38 year old called out Rodtang after his win over Jacob Smith at ONE Fight night 21 earlier this month and has been handed his dream fight.

Quick turnaround

Hirata (6-3) has not won a fight since 2022. The photogenic Japanese star has lost three out of her last four and will be looking to turn things around when she takes on Victoria Souza.

Souza (7-2) is also coming off a loss. She dropped a decision to Noelle Grandjean at ONE Fight Night 21 earlier this month and has been handed a quick turnaround.

Two titles

As previously announced this event will be headlined by an atomweight MMA fight. Stamp Fairtex is putting her title on the line against former teammate Denice Zamboanga at Impact Arena.

In the co-main event Tawanchai PKSaenchaigym rematches Jo Nattawut in an all Thai title fight. The former will be putting his featherweight Muay Thai belt on the line.

Meanwhile Liam Harrison will make his long awaited comeback and has been matched with Katsuki Kitano in a bantamweight Muay Thai bout.
