ONE Championship, known as ONE Fighting Championship until January 2015, is a multinational combat sports promotion founded on 14 July 2011 by Chatri Sityodtong and Victor Cui. It began as a mixed martial arts promotion and later added muay thai, kickboxing and submission grappling bouts. It held its first event, ONE FC: Champion vs. Champion, on 3 September 2011 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, and has since held more than 200 events across Asia. In 2018 it launched the ONE Super Series, which brought muay thai and kickboxing rules and titles, and from 2023 its weekly ONE Friday Fights programme at Bangkok's Lumpinee Stadium made Muay Thai increasingly prominent. In 2022 its parent company moved its legal operations from Singapore to the Cayman Islands.
