ONE Championship will head to Myanmar in March, and the welterweight title will be on the line. Zebaztian Kadestam (11-4), the promotion’s new 170-pound champion, will defend his belt for the first time when he takes on Georgiy Kichigin (20-5) in the main event at “ONE Championship 91: Reign of Valor.” The promotion announced the new event and booking today. ONE Championship 91 takes place March 8 at Thuwunna Indoor Stadium in Yangon, Myanmar. The event will stream on ONE’s online app, as well as Facebook. The 28-year-old Kadestam, from Sweden, won the vacant welterweight title with a fifth-round knockout of previously unbeaten American fighter Tyler McGuire this past November. That win brought his ONE record to 3-1 with his lone loss in the promotion coming at the hands of former champion Ben Askren in a title fight in September 2017.
