Zebaztian Kadestam defends welterweight title vs. Georgiy Kichigin at ONE Championship 91 in Myanmar
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.
