Heading the stacked card is none other than the hotly-anticipated trilogy showdown between ONE Flyweight World Champion Demetrious “Mighty Mouse” Johnson and former longtime king Adriano “Mikinho” Moraes.

The score between the two flyweight beasts is at one apiece, and with both men finding a path to a couple of highlight-reel finishes in their last two encounters, this one should certainly be done before the final bell.

For Moraes, redemption is on his mind. And there isn’t a bigger statement he can make than to defeat the MMA GOAT and 13-time MMA World Champion on home soil in May.

Meanwhile, Johnson is keen to further cement his status as one of the leading athletes of the sport. Another win over “Mikinho” will pull him further away from the chasing pack of GOATs.

However, standing in his way of victory is a Mexican slugger who brings the same style to the Circle. The 28-year-old is keen to leave a lasting impression in his debut and do what no athlete has done in ONE so far – defeat Rodtang at his own game. 

Meanwhile, ONE Flyweight Submission Grappling World Champion Mikey “Darth Rigatoni” Musumeci puts his gold on the line against Yemeni grappling sensation Osamah Almarwai. 

Four more MMA bouts will feature on the main card – an atomweight duel between Stamp Fairtex and Alyse “Lil’ Savage” Anderson, a welterweight tie between Roberto “Robocop” Soldic and Zebaztian “The Bandit” Kadestam, middleweight action featuring “The Burmese Python” Aung La N Sang and “King Kong Warrior” Fan Rong, and a must-see lightweight tussle between “Super” Sage Northcutt and Ahmed “Wolverine” Mujtaba.
