All the stars are in the Lion City for an incredible show, including former UFC flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson. ‘Mighty Mouse’ is the current ONE Championship flyweight world Grand Prix champion.
Demetrious Johnson is in town to corner longtime training partner James Yang, who is making his professional mixed martial arts debut.
Johnson is scheduled to make his highly anticipated return to action this December 5 at ONE X, the promotion’s blockbuster 10th-anniversary event. He takes on ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion Rodtang Jitmuangnon in a one-of-a-kind special mixed-rules martial arts contest.
The first and third rounds of the fight will be contested under the ONE Super Series Muay Thai ruleset. The second and fourth rounds will be fought under the global mixed martial arts ruleset in ONE Championship.
What’s Demetrious Johnson’s plan against Rodtang?
The MMA legend then shared a sneak peek of the kind of strategy he will bring into the circle in this special mixed-rules bout. As expected, he doesn’t exactly seem to be planning on trading strikes with one of the most dangerous strikers on the planet.
Also getting airtime in the vlog episode is former two-division world champion Aung La N Sang. ‘The Burmese Python’ will be in his friend Martin Nguyen’s corner when the Vietnamese-Australian faces Kim Jae Woong in a featherweight title eliminator. And of course, the Lee family are in town, with both Christian and Victoria set to see action.
ONE Championship: Revolution broadcasts live from the Singapore Indoor Stadium this Friday, September 24.
