Eddie Alvarez will face Ok Rae Yoon at ONE on TNT Part IV next week. The Korean earned a shot at the former UFC and Bellator lightweight champion with a win over Marat Gafurov this morning.
Alvarez (30-8 ) was disqualified in the first round at ONE on TNT. That fight with Iuri Lapicus finished very fast and he has been handed a quick turnaround.
Yoon (14-3) earned a decision win over former featherweight champion Gafurov on his promotional debut. He showcased some solid submission defence and was able to use his reach to good effect.
As previously announced former middleweight champions Aung La Nsang and Vitaly Bigdash will both face off for the third time on April 28th. This will be a non title rubber match, both men have won one of the previous two fights.
Sage Northcutt won’t be on the ONE on TNT Part IV card. The UFC veteran will be replaced by Eduard Folayang who meets Shinya Aoki for the third time in a lightweight bout.
Oumar Kane has been matched with Kirill Grishenko in a heavyweight fight. Also on the card is a strawweight Muay Thai bout pitting Jackie Buntan against Ekaterina Vandaryeva. The American is coming off an impressive stoppage win over Wondergirl Fairtex at ONE: ‘Fists of Fury’.
Sovannahry Em is now longer on the card so Colbey Northcutt has been handed a different opponent. The American will now be facing GAMMA bantamweight champion Courtney Martin who makes her pro debut.
