Logan Chan: Global Stage Debut at ONE Championship

MMA news

British Muay Thai sensation Logan Chan, a 21-year-old talent from Edinburgh, is on the brink of making his significant global debut. He is slated to compete at ONE Friday Fights 118 this August, where he will face the formidable and undefeated Thai athlete Chama, who trains out of the celebrated Superbon Training Camp. Chan clearly recognizes the magnitude of this opportunity, describing ONE Championship as “the biggest stage in the world” and noting its vast international viewership. As he eloquently put it, “It`s not just Bangkok or Lumpini that are watching you when you`re on ONE, it`s the entire world.”

Logan Chan is poised for his major global debut.

Despite the immense pressure associated with such a high-profile event, Chan`s preparation remains steadfast, mirroring the consistency that has defined his already highly successful career. He holds an impressive professional record of 24 wins and only 1 loss, and is currently ranked #4 in the UK Muay Thai Rankings, a testament to his dedication and exceptional skill.

Intriguingly, Logan had the chance to join ONE Championship last year but deliberately chose to defer the opportunity. He opted instead to prioritize his university education and to accumulate further crucial fight experience. Now, after this strategic delay, Chan confidently declares himself “100 percent ready” to exhibit his formidable talents to the world. He explained his decision, stating, “I initially turned it down because of uni and I already had fights and stuff booked at home, but I knew that it was going to come. I just wanted to make sure I was 100 per cent ready too and I just felt like if I took it last year, I didn`t want to take it too soon.”
