Ahead of his bout at 'Odyssey of Champions,' Jake Butler believes he is still on track to realize ONE title dream

With so much publicity surrounding Jake Butler’s decision to quit his job on Wall Street and pursue a career in mixed martial arts (MMA), it’s easy to forget the American only made his pro debut two years ago. He is now a veteran of six pro fights and faces his toughest test yet at ONE: "Odyssey of Champions."

He is taking on Christiano Kaminishi at the Istora Senayan in Jakarta in a bout which is set for September 27th. The Brazilian is a jiu-jitsu black belt and former Heat heavyweight champion and Butler believes he will be the best opponent he has ever faced.
