Adriano Martins vs. Kairat Akhmetov title fight co-headlines ONE Championship’s return to China

ONE Championship returns to Beijing on Nov. 21, and the promotion has added another title fight to the card.

Headlined by a title unification bout between featherweight champion Jadamba Narantungalag and interim titleholder Marat Gafurov, the fight card will mark the return of flyweight kingpin Adriano Moraes against undefeated Kairat Akhmetov.

Moraes (13-1), the first and only 125-pound champion in ONE history, defended his belt for the first time in March, defeating Asuka Mikami via unanimous decision. In his previous three bouts, "Mikinho" submitted Yasuhiro Urushitani, Kosuke Suzuki and Geje Eustaquio.
