Two former title challengers collide in a heavyweight clash at ONE: ‘Reign of Valor’. Alain Ngalani and Mauro Cerilli face off at the Thuwunna Indoor Stadium on March 8th.
Cerilli (12-3) is a former Cage Warriors heavyweight champion who was handed a title shot on his promotional debut. He came up short against Brandon Vera at ONE: ‘Conquest of Champions’ but will be looking to bounce back with a victory in Myanmar next month.
He comes up against Ngalani (4-4-0-1) who has already fought in the Thuwunna Indoor Stadium. He faced Aung La Nsang in 2017 and was stopped in the opening round but the Cameroonian did succeed in winning his last MMA fight by split decision.
As previously announced the card will be headlined by a welterweight title bout between Zebaztian Kadestam and Georgiy Kichigin. It will also feature a strawweight battle between top contenders Yoshitaka Naito and Rene Catalan.
Meanwhile atomweights Jomary Torres and Lin Heqin face off while Gary Mangat makes his promotional debut against former bantamweight title challenger Toni Tauru.
In the absence of La Nsang local interest will be provided by Burmese born bantamweight Tial Thang who makes his professional debut against experienced Cambodian Rin Saroth.
