ONE Fight Night 19: Haggerty vs. Lobo promises to be another exciting card as fan favorites Liam Nolan, Nat “Wondergirl” Jaroonsak, and Luke Lessei will now take part in the action.
On U.S. primetime on Friday, February 16, fans inside Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, will witness a main event featuring Jonathan Haggerty defending his ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Championship against Felipe Lobo, and the fights leading up to it are certainly going to blow everyone away.

Nolan – who also trains out of Knowlesy Academy with Haggerty – made a rousing return to the ring at ONE Fight Night 18 earlier this year, defeating Ali Aliev in a three-round masterpiece. He appears to have injuries and illnesses behind him as he goes for a third win just weeks removed from his last fight.
Standing in his way this time around will be Spain’s Nauzet Trujillo, who is looking to claim his first win in ONE following a disappointing loss to Thai star Rungrawee Sitsongpeenong in his debut last August. Meanwhile, an all-American Muay Thai clash will go down when Lessei faces Eddie Abasolo in a featherweight battle.

Abasolo has competed three times in ONE, and while he only has one win so far – a knockout victory over Niclas Larsen at ONE Fight Night 8 in March of last year – he has proven that he is a formidable force in the division. On the flip side, Lessei had a debut for the ages when he fought veteran “Smokin’” Jo Nattawut at ONE Fight Night 17 in December of last year. Despite not coming out on top, he earned the respect of fans around the globe with his performance.
Both fighters will certainly be hungry to get into the win column in the ultra-competitive division.
Nat Jaroonsak vs. Dayane Cardoso
Finally, Thai star “Wondergirl” is back with another innovative fight as she takes on straw-weight MMA standout Dayane Cardoso in a mixed-rules bout. Their match will be contested similarly to Rodtang Jitmuangnon and Demetrious Johnson’s fight in March of 2022, with the rounds alternating between Muay Thai and MMA.

She will certainly have her hands full against Cardoso, one of the hardest-hitting fighters in MMA. The Brazilian has five knockouts in nine wins and could give her opponent a run for her money in the Muay Thai rounds.
