The Official Event Poster |
Members of the press are eagerly awaiting for the fighters to start their workout. |
First to enter the gym is the members of Team Lakay. They include...
- Kevin "The Silencer" Belingon
- Honorio "The Rock" Banario
- Eduard "The Landslide" Folayang
Next to enter the ring is former UFC veteran, and one of the well-known MMA heavyweights of today, Brandon Vera. In the event, he will face URCC Heavyweight Champion Igor Subora on the Heavyweight division.
Filipino fans will surely be excited for this fight, because this will not only be Brandon Vera's debut fight in ONE FC, but will also be the first time he will fight on his home country (both his parents are of Filipino blood).
Lastly, Filipina former Women's WBO Super Bantamweight and IBA Super Bantamweight champion Ana "The Hurricane" Julaton will also make his second MMA fight, facing her against Walaa Abbas on the Women's Flyweight division. Her MMA debut was in "ONE FC: Rise of Heroes", in which she defeated Aya-Saeid Saber via TKO.
Catch them, as well as the other Filipino homegrown fighters, on ONE
