ONE Championship (ONE) put on another exciting night of martial arts action at the Singapore Indoor Stadium with ONE: ENTER THE DRAGON featuring a number of unforgettable and compelling contests.
In the main event, Christian “The Warrior” Lee of Singapore captured the ONE Lightweight World Championship with a stunning technical knockout victory over Shinya “Tobikan Judan” Aoki of Japan. He becomes the youngest male mixed martial arts World Champion in history.
In the co-main event, Regian “The Immortal” Eersel of The Netherlands was crowned the inaugural ONE Lightweight Kickboxing World Champion with a unanimous decision victory over countryman Nieky “The Natural” Holzken.
Former ONE Flyweight World Champion Geje “Gravity” Eustaquio of the Philippines returned to winning form with a unanimous decision win over South Korean newcomer Kim Kyu Sung to earn a spot as an alternate in the ONE Flyweight World Grand Prix.
The smaller Filipino used his superior striking and impeccable head movement to outpoint Kim in the first two rounds. Kim tried to rally back in the final round, but his comeback came a little too late, as Eustaquio was awarded the decision win after three rounds.
Kicking the action off at ONE: ENTER THE DRAGON was India’s Rahul “The Kerala Krusher” Raju who picked up an impressive submission win over Filipino striker Richard “Notorious” Corminal in the first round of their opening lightweight bout.
Raju utilized his range to outstrike Corminal but ended up getting tagged and dropped by the Filipino late in the opening round. Raju quickly recovered and took his Filipino opponent down before transitioning into a rear naked choke and forcing the tap.

One other thing I would like to convey is that in place of trying to accommodate all your online degree courses on days of the week that you end work (since most people are worn out when they get back), try to arrange most of your lessons on the saturdays and sundays and only a few courses for weekdays, even if it means taking some time away from your saturday and sunday. This is fantastic because on the week-ends, you will be a lot more rested in addition to concentrated in school work. Thanks a lot for the different tips I have realized from your blog site.
