MANILA, Philippines - ONE FC has added three bouts to the latest blockbuster event, ONE FC: Warior’s Way, at the MOA Arena on Dec. 5.
Eduard Folayang returns to action to take on the streaking Timofey Nastyukhin, who is riding a nine-win streak.
Former WBO and IBA boxing champion Ana Julaton will see action against Egypt’s Walaa Abas.
The event will also see a clash of striking styles as wushu world champion Rene Catalan goes up against muay thai world champion Dejdamrong Sor Amnuaysirichoke.
“ONE Fighting Championship has taken over Asia this year with blockbuster shows all over the continent,” said ONE FC chief executive officer Victor Cui. “ONE FC will return to Manila with one of our most stacked cards to date and the night will feature three martial arts champions from the Philippines.”
Folayang, one of the most popular sports figures in the Philippines, is a wushu practitioner. The former school teacher, who transitioned to mixed martial arts, has an impressive career record of 14 wins and four losses, his recent wins coming at the expense of highly touted star Vincent Latoel and the former ONE FC lightweight world champion Kotetsu Boku.
