1774 Muay Thai Series delivered a world-class night of action in Sydney as the 2026 fight season kicked off in emphatic fashion. Returning to the William Inglis Hotel in Warwick Farm for its 15th edition, the promotion once again showcased why it remains one of Australia’s premier Muay Thai platforms, presenting a stacked card filled with world title stakes, interstate rivalries, and elite-level performances.

In the main event, Sydney’s Katie Rose Mitchell captured the WBC World Title, defeating the UK’s reigning WMO World Champion Naomi Ridley via unanimous decision in a high-level five-round championship contest.

Mitchell displayed composure, technical precision, and championship maturity throughout the bout, controlling key exchanges and maintaining a strong work rate against the experienced British challenger. The victory marks the biggest win of Mitchell’s career and firmly establishes her among the elite names in Australian Muay Thai.

The win is also another major achievement for Australian women’s Muay Thai, with Mitchell joining a growing list of Australian athletes claiming world championship honours on the international stage.

The co-main event delivered one of the standout contests of the evening as Sydney’s Moey “187” Dahlan faced New Zealand’s Michael Issac for the WBC Oceania Welterweight Title.

Across five hard-fought rounds, both fighters traded momentum and heavy combinations in a bout that kept fans on edge from start to finish. Dahlan’s relentless pressure, body work, and strong finish in the championship rounds ultimately earned him the decision victory and the WBC Oceania crown.

Another major title bout saw Sydney’s “Cobra” Kai Weate Jones gain long-awaited redemption against Adelaide’s Jason “50 Shades” Scott, capturing the WBC Australian Welterweight Title via decision.

The bout was a rematch four years in the making, and Weate Jones delivered one of the most complete performances of his career to finally secure victory over his South Australian rival and claim national honours.

One of Australia’s fastest-rising talents, James Kostic, continued his impressive run with a composed decision victory over Thailand’s Samartlek. The win further strengthens Kostic’s position as one of the country’s most exciting young prospects and keeps him firmly in the conversation for bigger international opportunities.

Elsewhere on the card, Kye Larucci scored an impressive third-round TKO victory over Kristian Durham, while Sarkis Doueihi produced a highlight-reel knockout finish against Andrew Mitchell in the third round.

From world championship glory to national title clashes and rising stars making statements, the 15th Edition of 1774 Muay Thai Series once again reinforced its reputation as one of Australia’s leading Muay Thai promotions and set the tone for a massive year ahead.
