ONE women’s strawweight MMA world champion ‘The Panda’ Xiong Jing Nan is looking to challenge herself in as many different ways as possible, to test her limits as a martial artist. And what better way to do that than to take part in a historic, one-of-a-kind spectacle against a dangerous young opponent.

Xiong is set to face Muay Thai phenom Nat ‘Wondergirl’ Jaroonsak in a special rules striking match at ONE Fight Night 14: Stamp vs. Ham on Prime Video. The event will be broadcast live from the Singapore Indoor Stadium in Singapore on Friday, September 29.

Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Xiong says she is excited for her next fight, and wants to show fans what she’s capable of.

‘The Panda’ said:

“I have trained with different partners because everyone has a different fighting style. I want to learn more about it to enrich my experience. I will try my best to show my skills in this contest.”

Before Xiong joined ONE Championship and became a mixed martial arts world champion, she began her fighting career as a boxer in China. So this special rules striking match is right up her alley.

ONE Championship’s historic first-ever special rules striking match consists of three 3-minute rounds. Athletes are allowed to use all punching techniques. However, grappling, kicks, elbows, and knees are prohibited. The fight will be contested in 4-ounce MMA gloves and will be scored using the 10-point must system.

Fans in the United States and Canada can catch all of the action of ONE Fight Night 14 live and absolutely free on Amazon Prime Video.
