ONE FC CEO Victor Cui stated, “After months of anticipation, ONE FC
will return to Singapore with another explosive night of
world-class mixed martial arts action. Fans around the world have
been eagerly awaiting the ONE FC debut of top welterweight,
Ben
Askren. He faces the toughest test of his career when he goes
up against another top welterweight, Bakhtiyar
Abbasov. ONE FC is redefining the mixed martial arts landscape
and close to 12,000 fans will pack out the arena to witness history
at ONE FC: HONOR & GLORY! The partnership with Berocca® is a
gamechanger that will bring together two of the most recognizable
brands in Asia. ONE FC has 90% of the market share in Asia and we
are beyond ecstatic to have Berocca® as a partner and are excited
about the synergies that this partnership will bring.”
“Berocca® is about providing lasting energy performance to busy individuals; supporting both mental and physical performance as they take on challenges everyday. We are proud to be represented by Eddie Ng, one of the most exciting combat athletes in this region with his discipline and gift in this physically and mentally demanding martial arts sport. Synergistically, One FC is the right sponsorship platform to support MMA fighters as the sport is all about staying sharp and alert. It is also a battle between body, mind and soul to see who emerges as the winner in the cage,” said Ms Eileen Kuan, Marketing Category Manager, Consumer Care, Bayer Healthcare. Ms Kuan added that exciting plans to leverage on Asia’s most premier MMA events are in the pipeline.
Vincent Latoel is a globe-trotting kickboxer who has faced some of the best in the sport. Latoel has made a career of putting on exciting bouts and enters every bout with the intention of trading blows with his opponent. A win over Ng would propel Latoel up the rankings and establish him as a potential contender for the ONE FC Lightweight World Championship.
Honorio Banario is a Wushu practitioner who has found success in the ONE FC cage. The greatest moment in his fledging career was when he became the inaugural ONE FC Featherweight World Champion last February. He is eager to prove his worth once again on Asia’s biggest stage and gets the perfect opportunity to do so against Narantungalag Jadambaa.
Entering the ONE FC cage for his first time, Mongolian MMA star Narantungalag Jadambaa is hell-bent on further establishing himself on a larger stage. Considered the best mixed martial artist to emerge from Mongolia, Narantungalag channels the iconic Mongolian warrior spirit when he competes, and will now get a step up in competition and bring that energy to ONE FC.
Bruno Pucci has won over MMA fans around the world with his impressive ONE FC debut, where he locked in a rear naked choke and submitted Pakistan’s MMA pioneer, Bashir Ahmad, in the first round. Pucci is a decorated no-gi grappling champion who has remained undefeated since transitioning to mixed martial arts and will look to keep that streak going as he closes in on a title shot.
Major Overall is a fighter not lacking in confidence, as he carries himself with an enthusiastic demeanour both in and outside of the cage. A Brazilian Jiu-jitsu purple belt, he is very comfortable fighting from his back and has significantly improved his striking since moving to Asia. He came to the continent with the intention of learning new martial arts, and will be eager to showcase his new-found skills against Pucci.
Fans in Asia can catch all the action live on STAR Sports. Check your local listings. Also, fans from around the world can witness the action online via live streaming at www.onefc.livesport.tv. The event will be available for purchase at just US$9.99.

Hong Kong’s Eddie Ng is a
lightweight contender who is on one of the best winning streaks in
ONE FC, having racked up four consecutive wins over the division’s
best lightweights. The prodigious mixed martial artist began his
career by learning techniques through watching video tapes. He
eventually travelled to Singapore, where he has now settled into
his role as a member of the Evolve Fight Team. A win over Latoel
will reinforce Ng’s position as one of the best Lightweights in the
world.
