Yusupov, Branch Out Of ONE: Full Circle Matches

Two high-profile matchups have been removed from ONE Championship’s latest offering, ONE: Full Circle, on Friday, February 25.

Both Jamal Yusupov and David Branch were not medically cleared to compete, forcing their removal from the event.

Yusupov was entering as the #1-ranked featherweight Muay Thai contender and was set to challenge Petchmorakot Petchyindee for the gold. For Branch, he was scheduled to make his organizational debut opposite longtime middleweight contender Leandro Ataides.

Due to the late change, no replacements will be sought, and the matches are officially scratched from the event.
