British fighter Ben Woolliss is set to make his highly anticipated return to the ring on May 16, with the event being 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 Woolliss' second outing under the ONE Championship banner, having made a stunning debut last month with a first-round stoppage victory over former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion John Lineker. Despite having to overcome long-term health issues, Woolliss is looking to build on his impressive start.
His opponent, Petchfergus, is a former ONE bantamweight kickboxing world champion, providing a tough test for Woolliss. The main event of the evening will see Chinese star Tang Kai defend his ONE featherweight MMA world title against the undefeated Shamil Gasanov, who boasts a near-flawless record and a formidable skillset.
