British sensation Ben Woolliss is set to make his second appearance in the ONE Championship on May 16, broadcasting live on Sky Sports. The event, taking place at the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Thailand, will feature Woolliss facing off against former ONE bantamweight kickboxing world champion Petchtanong Petchfergus in an exhilarating bantamweight kickboxing match. Woolliss, hailing from Grimsby, has overcome significant health challenges in recent years and made a remarkable promotional debut last month. On just nine days' notice, he stepped into the ring with former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion John Lineker in a featherweight kickboxing contest, securing a stunning one-round stoppage victory with his debilitating low kicks.
The main event of the evening will see Chinese standout Tang Kai defend his ONE featherweight MMA world title for the second time against the formidable Shamil "The Cobra" Gasanov, who boasts an impressive record and a versatile skillset that includes powerful striking, elite grappling, and submission expertise.
