ONE Championship shakes up Fight Night 29 card with main event switch and new match-ups

ONE Championship has been forced into a big shake-up of next week’s Fight Night 29 card with a late change to the main event – and several other new match-ups added.

With Shir Cohen out injured, Allycia Hellen Rodrigues will now defend her atomweight Muay Thai title against debutant Marie McManamon of the United Kingdom and Ireland.

Next Saturday’s event has been bolstered further over the last 48 hours with the addition of four other fights.

Myanmar veteran Soe Lin Oo will take on Russia’s Dmitrii Kovtun in a bantamweight Muay Thai bout.

Indonesia’s Eko Roni Saputra, who left ONE last year, has re-signed with the promotion for a flyweight MMA fight against Sanzhar Zakirov, with the Uzbek moving up from strawweight.

Hong Kong’s Yu Yau Pui, meanwhile, returns from a first-round KO loss to Amy Pirnie to tackle Poland’s Martyna Keircynzka, who drops down from the strawweight Muay Thai division after a decision loss to Belarus’ Ekaterina Vandaryeva.

Two-time ADCC champion Diogo Reis will also make his ONE debut in a submission grappling clash at flyweight against Japan’s Shoya Ishiguro.
