Jonathan Haggerty and Superlek Kiatmoo9's ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title fixture will now headline ONE 168: Denver on September 6.

The stacked card will feature 11 more exciting contests ranging from Muay Thai, MMA, and submission grappling when it emanates live in American primetime from the Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado. The full card was revealed on the promotion's official site yesterday.

Haggerty and Superlek are no strangers to one another, having crossed paths before they joined the world's largest martial arts organization in October 2018. That evening, 'The Kicking Machine' claimed a stoppage against the British phenom due to a doctor stoppage at the end of round two.

Both men have since evolved into the best strikers today. 'The General' now reigns as a two-sport king on the global stage, while the Thai megastar holds the ONE flyweight kickboxing world title.

With a chance for Haggerty to avenge his defeat and an opportunity for Superlek to join an elite list of two-sport world champions under the ONE banner, this ONE 168: Denver main event should be a striking clinic from start to finish.

The rest of the card looks all set to deliver across all fronts.

Another all-champion showdown gets underway in the ONE 168 co-main event when Kade Ruotolo puts his ONE lightweight submission grappling gold on the line against the discipline's flyweight kingpin, Mikey Musumeci.

Ruotolo and Musumeci have stayed perfect throughout their ONE campaign thus far, with an identical 7-0 promotional slate. Given their abilities to produce absolute magic, don't blink an eye when these two world champions slug it out on the canvas in the Mile High City.

Before those two electrifying matchups, a legend vs. legend showdown gets underway when Liam Harrison and Seksan Or Kwanmuang take to the Circle in a 140-pound catchweight Muay Thai duel.

Both veterans have featured in some absolute wars over their illustrious careers, and another high-octane showing could be in the offing when they square off on the grandest stage of combat sports.

Other stars featuring at ONE 168: Denver include former two-division MMA world champion Aung La N Sang, former bantamweight MMA king John Lineker, Hiroba Minowa, Maurice Abevi, Adrian Lee, and Johan Ghazali.

Meanwhile, Xiong Jing Nan's hotly anticipated ONE strawweight MMA world title defense against Stamp was removed from the card as the three-sport queen recovers from a torn meniscus she suffered a couple of months back.
