On October 3 in Bangkok, athletes were weighed and hydrated for the ONE Fight Night 25: Nicholas vs. Ersil card under the updated rules. As a result of the procedure, two fights were excluded from the tournament: Tagir Khalilov’s fight against Kongtorani (Muay Thai flyweight) and Ayaka Miura’s fight against Jihin Radzuan (Atomweight MMA).
