MANILA, Philippines – ONE Championship’s lightweight throne won’t be vacant for long after all. Just a little over two years removed from his first reign as a world champion, Folayang will attempt to become the first two-time ONE lightweight champion in front of a partisan Filipino crowd. “Eduard wants to reclaim his title and go down as the greatest Filipino martial artist in history.” Sityodtong said of the Filipino martial arts hero. Standing opposite Folayang will be Khan, a 23-year old knockout artist from the famed Evolve MMA stable in Singapore. This will be Khan’s first opportunity to challenge for a world championship, and he has the opportunity to become Singapore’s first homegrown world champion.
