MANILA, Philippines — Eduard Folayang snaps a two-match slide after winning against Mongolian Amarsanaa Tsogookhuu via unanimous decision in ONE: Masters of Fate on Friday.

The fight was cut short in the second after Folayang suffered a deep cut in his left check.

Tsogookhuu unintetionally headbutted the Baguio native and the referee called for injury time.

After a few minutes, it was decided that the match would go to the judges score cards due to an 'unintentional foul'.

The Team Lakay fighter was able to do just enough against the Mongolian to take away the win.

Folayang improves to 22-8.
