ONE Championship has just announced an epic headlining bout for 10 November’s ONE: LEGENDS OF THE WORLD, which takes place at the Mall of Asia Arena in Manila, Philippines.

There, reigning ONE Lightweight World Champion Eduard “Landslide” Folayang will defend his title against ONE Featherweight World Champion Martin “The Situ-Asian” Nguyen.

Folayang was last seen in the ONE Championship cage last April, when he defended his belt against top contender Ev Ting of Malaysia. The 33-year-old won the title in November 2016, upsetting Japanese martial arts legend Shinya Aoki to win by third-round technical knockout.

Nguyen, on the other hand, recently scored his own shocking upset, defeating previously-unbeaten featherweight titleholder Marat “Cobra” Gafurov in Kuala Lumpur last August, and captured the ONE Featherweight World Championship.

In addition, reigning ONE Flyweight World Champion Adriano “Mikinho” Moraes (16-2) of Brazil will put his title on the line against rising Filipino star Danny “The King” Kingad (8-0) of Team Lakay.

Going with Folayang to continue his streak.
