A lightweight bout has been added to ONE Championship 28 on May 22 in Singapore as Lowen Tynanes will meet Kuat Khamitov.
The fight booking was announced by ONE Championship on Tuesday.
ONE Championship 28 will come from the Singapore Indoor Stadium on May 22nd and will be headlined by Shinya Aoki defending the lightweight title against Koji Ando.
Tynanes (6-0) has won five of his six fights by stoppage and is 2-0 in ONE Championships. His last three victories have come by stoppage in the first round and his most recent win came in October against Jeff Sweeney at King of the Cage. Khamitov (18-3-1) has won six in a row and this will be his ONE Championship debut. Thirteen of his wins have come by stoppage and seven of those have come by submission.
“ONE Championship returns to Singapore on 22 May with a blockbuster main event,” ONE Championship CEO Victor Cui said. “Shinya Aoki is the greatest submission grappler the sport has ever seen. He has been on a tear with seven straight victories, but he now faces his toughest test yet. Koji Ando has proven to be one of the best lightweights in the world. Ando has both the striking and grappling skills to defeat Aoki. This is a clash that you do not want to miss! Get ready for a night of exciting world-class mixed martial arts action as ONE Championship goes live around the world from the Singapore Indoor Stadium.”
