A rotten break for ONE FC officials as they were forced to scratch their headlining 170-lbs title bout this past Thursday evening, with Portuguese starlet Vitor Pinto (7-0) failing to pass his pre-fight medical. Pinto stepped in as a replacement for Adam Kayoom (4-1), who earlier withdrew from the title contest due to injury.
ONE FC 12: Warrior Spirit takes place Friday, November 15, at the Stadium Putra in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The main card airs on Star Sports and streams online at http://www.onefc.livesport.tv/, following free prelims onYouTube.
With the tussles and what not, the exciting catchweight bout between Adriano Moraes and Yusup Saadulaev has been moved to the top of the card. Both fighters weighed in at 134-lbs even.
Melvin Yeoh (7-1) and AJ Lias Mansor (1-3), finalists of Malaysia’s Featherweight tourney, hit their weight marks as well.
