ONE: 'Odyssey of Champions' set for Sept. 27 in Jakarta headlined by 145-pound title fight

ONE Championship returns to Jakarta on September 27 with a card at the Istora Senayan Indoor Arena that will be headlined by a featherweight title fight between reigning Mongolian champion Narantungalag Jadambaa and undefeated Russian challenger Marat Gafurov.

It will be ONE Championship's fourth card in Indonesia and the first time that a title fight has ever taken place in Jakarta. Jadambaa (10-3) has won ten out of his last 11 fights and has beaten some of the best lightweights in the region including Akihiro Gono, Kazunori Yokota, Adrian Pang and Yui Chul Nam.

He dropped down to featherweight last year and the 39 year old proved just as effective in a lighter division, outpointing Honorio Banario in his ONE debut and then winning a decision over Koji Oishi to become the organization's third 145-pound champion.
