Evolve MMA recently held a trial in Singapore. Sixteen mixed martial artists were competing for a full time spot on the fight team with a series of YouTube videos documenting the tryouts.
At the end of the process six fighters were invited to join Evolve MMA on a permanent basis. The successful candidates were announced by head coach Eduard Pamplona at the end of the final episode.
The six fighters selected to join Evolve MMA are:
Indian bantamweight Roshan Mainam (3-2)
American featherweight Troy Worthen (4-0)
Finnish flyweight Aleksi Toivonen (6-1)
Korean flyweight Kyu Sung Kim (9-2)
Japanese strawweight Ryuto Sawada (11-4)
Brazilian strawweight Maira Mazar (6-2)
Sawada is a ONE Warrior Series veteran. The other five are likely to end up signing for the Singapore headquartered promotion and could quickly go on to establish themselves as title contenders.
