British kickboxer Ben Woolliss is set to make his second appearance in the ONE Championship 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. This will be a challenging bout for Woolliss, as Petchfergus is a former ONE bantamweight kickboxing world champion. Despite struggling with health issues in recent years, Woolliss has made a remarkable comeback, signing with ONE and making his debut last month on short notice.
In his debut, Woolliss achieved a stunning one-round stoppage victory over former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion John Lineker, utilizing devastating low kicks to take down his opponent. The main event of the evening will feature Chinese star Tang Kai as he defends his ONE featherweight MMA world title against the formidable Shamil "The Cobra" Gasanov. Gasanov boasts an impressive record, with a strong background in stand-up fighting, grappling, and submissions, making him a force to be reckoned with in the featherweight division.
