Following his impressive debut in the ONE Championship, Britain's Ben Woolliss is scheduled to return to the ring on May 16, with the event 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 since joining ONE, having overcome significant health challenges in recent years.
In his debut, Woolliss achieved a remarkable one-round stoppage victory over former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion John Lineker, despite taking the fight on short notice. His upcoming opponent, Petchfergus, is a former ONE bantamweight kickboxing world champion, presenting a formidable challenge.
The main event of the evening will feature Tang Kai defending his ONE featherweight MMA world title against Shamil Gasanov, who boasts a nearly flawless record and a well-rounded skillset.
