Rising Muay Thai fighter Logan Chan is set to step back under the bright lights of ONE Championship this Friday, September 19, when he takes on Thailand’s Saksri at the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok.
The 22-year-old, who proudly represents both Scotland and Hong Kong, made a thunderous first impression earlier this year when he delivered a highlight-reel elbow knockout against seasoned Thai striker Chama Superbon. That emphatic debut finish instantly put Chan on the radar as one of the most exciting new faces in the 138lbs division.
Chan’s debut wasn’t just a victory — it was a statement. Displaying slick footwork, sharp combinations, and calmness far beyond his years, the Edinburgh-born fighter controlled the bout from the opening bell. After dropping his opponent with a clean boxing combination, he sealed the win with a brutal elbow strike at the end of the first round. That performance left ONE Championship fans eager to see more, and the promotion wasted no time in booking his return.
Standing across from him this Friday will be 25-year-old Saksri, another dangerous Thai athlete who also earned a debut win earlier this year. Fighting in front of a home crowd at Lumpinee, Saksri will be aiming to derail Chan’s momentum and prove he belongs among the rising stars of ONE Championship. For Chan, the challenge is about more than just winning. It is about building on his debut performance and proving he can compete with some of the best talent Muay Thai has to offer.
Reflecting on his first fight, Chan told revealed that he always believed his style could match up well with world-class opponents. His debut confirmed that belief. “I’m only just getting started,” he said, adding that his long-term goal is to test himself against the top names in the division. “Everyone knows ONE Championship’s fighters are global superstars. There are so many great matchups for me at this weight, and I’m ready to throw myself in there with the best in the world.”
With his return to ONE Championship, Logan Chan has the chance to prove his knockout debut was no fluke and to cement himself as a genuine contender in the 138lbs division. Fans around the world will be watching closely to see if the young Scotsman can deliver another explosive performance. All eyes now turn to ONE Friday Fights 125 at Lumpinee Stadium, where Chan’s journey continues against Saksri in what promises to be another electrifying night of Muay Thai action.
