Ben Woolliss Set for Sky Sports Return After Electrifying ONE Debut
British fighter Ben Woolliss is scheduled to make his second appearance in the ONE Championship on May 16, broadcasting live on Sky Sports. Woolliss will face off against Petchtanong Petchfergus in a bantamweight kickboxing match at the Lumpinee Stadium in Thailand. This bout marks a significant challenge for Woolliss, as Petchfergus is a former ONE bantamweight kickboxing world champion. Despite overcoming long-term health issues, Woolliss made a remarkable debut in the ONE Championship last month, defeating former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion John Lineker in a featherweight kickboxing contest with a stunning one-round stoppage. Lineker, known for his formidable punching power, was taken down by Woolliss's damaging low kicks. The main event on May 16 features Chinese star Tang Kai defending his ONE featherweight MMA world title against Shamil "The Cobra" Gasanov. Tang Kai has been dominant in his featherweight MMA career, while Gasanov boasts a near-flawless record, leveraging his stand-up skills, grappling, and submission expertise to outmaneuver his opponents. Following his victory in avenging his only career loss, Gasanov is poised to make a strong challenge for the title.
