ONE Championship Postpone Upcoming Closed-Door Shows

ONE Championship

ONE Championship has been forced to postpone its upcoming closed-door shows following the Singapore Government’s decision to enforce a lock-down on all non-essential services. ONE was gearing up to hold four audience-free shows starting on Friday, April 17.

ONE CEO, Chatri Sityodtong, made the announcement today via social media.

“All May events for ONE Championship will be postponed until further notice due to the recent Covid-19 developments (border closings and lockdowns) across most countries in Asia,”

“Our highest priority remains the safety and health of our athletes, officials, staff, fans, and the public during these challenging times.”

“My team and I are working around the clock on multiple options to bring back our events as soon as safely possible,”

ONE is now set to return to action on May 29 when it stages ONE: Infinity 1, inside the Mall of Asia Arena in Manila, Philippines. However, this event may also find itself undergoing changes as the Philippines has been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic. Hospitals in Metro Manila are currently at capacity due to an influx of patients with COVID-19.
