Ben Woolliss Set for Sky Sports Return After Electrifying ONE Debut

Following his remarkable debut in ONE Championship, Britain's Ben Woolliss is scheduled to compete again on May 16, broadcast live on Sky Sports. Woolliss will face off against Petchtanong Petchfergus in a bantamweight kickboxing match at the Lumpinee Stadium in Thailand, airing live on Sky Sports in the early morning hours of Saturday, May 16. In this upcoming bout at ONE Fight Night 43, Woolliss will be up against a former ONE bantamweight kickboxing world champion, Petchfergus. Despite battling long-term health issues, Woolliss, hailing from Grimsby, recently signed with ONE and made a stunning promotional debut just last month. On short notice of nine days, he accepted his first fight, taking on former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion John Lineker in a featherweight kickboxing match. Lineker is infamous for his formidable punching power, but Woolliss secured a spectacular one-round stoppage victory, defeating "Hands of Stone" with a series of damaging low kicks. The main event on May 16 features Chinese star Tang Kai as he defends his ONE featherweight MMA world title for the second time against Shamil "The Cobra" Gasanov. Tang Kai has dominated every featherweight MMA opponent, while Gasanov boasts an impressive record, leveraging his powerful stand-up skills, grappling, and submission expertise to overwhelm his opponents. After avenging his sole career loss, "The Cobra" is poised to strike and may be unbeatable.
