This Friday, July 12, the ONE Championship league will host the ONE Friday Fights 70 tournament, in which two Russian athletes – Amir Abdulmuslimov and Gadzhimurad Amirzhanov – will participate. Both have no losses and hope to soon receive a contract on the permanent list worth $ 100,000.
In total, the card will include 11 fights under MMA and Muay Thai rules.
Abdulmuslimov vs Petnangan (Muay Thai)
The confrontation between representatives of the Russian and Thai schools of Muay Thai will take place in the intermediate weight of 130 pounds (58.97 kg).
Petnangam, 29, is an experienced fighter and Rajademnen Stadium champion with a record of 186 wins and 60 losses.
Amir Abdulmuslimov, 21, is a basic kickboxer who has fought only six professional fights in Muay Thai, including one in ONE. He won all of them. In ONE, the representative of Team Medhi Zatout made his debut in July last year against the experienced Thai Jaising. The outcome of the confrontation was decided by an aggressive and incredibly accurate combination of body and head blows, with which he knocked out Jaising in the third round.
Amirzhanov vs Pereira (MMA)
Gadzhimurad Amirzhanov is a representative of Anita Malykhina’s ONE Chance team. The young fighter had two fights in the Asian League and managed to win both ahead of schedule. In the first fight – by KO, and in the second – by Kimura.
Amirzhanov is the European and Russian champion in Thai boxing, the Russian champion in K-1. Gadzhimurad comes from a sports family: his father is an honored coach of Russia, coach of the Dagestan Thai boxing team. During his professional career, Amirzhanov won all three professional MMA fights within the AMC.
Amirzhanov’s opponent is 27-year-old Brazilian Mateus Pereira. Pereira trains in Thailand at Phulet Fight Club and has a good record of seven wins and two losses. His base is also stand-up – Muay Thai, so it will be a confrontation between two strikers. Pereira has fought three fights in ONE and is also undefeated. All victories, including those against Evgeny Morozov and Khasan Khaliev, were won ahead of schedule.
The ONE Friday Fights 70 tournament broadcast will begin at 3:50 p.m. Moscow time on Match! Fighter.
