The event played out to a virtually empty arena at Singapore Indoor Stadium, as the fighters battled it out inside the ONE Championship circle while the fans stayed in their homes, and Asia began the routine we all now recognize as “self-isolation” and “social distancing.” The night’s main event featured a rematch for the ONE atomweight women’s kickboxing title, as America’s Janet Todd avenged her prior loss to Thailand’s Stamp Fairtex to capture her first ONE title after another highly-competitive battle.

There was also an impressive win for Florida’s Troy Worthen (7-0), who extended his unbeaten record with a dominant victory over New Zealand’s Mark Abelardo (19-7).
