Perhaps the most high profile recent addition to the ONE Championship roster has a date and opponent for his promotional debut.
Former KSW double champion Roberto Soldic (20-3) will enter the ONE Championship cage for the first time Dec. 2 when he takes on Murad Ramazanov (11-0). The welterweight fight will serve as part of ONE on Prime Video 5 at Singapore Indoor Stadium.
Considered by many MMA diehards one of the best fighters in the world outside of the UFC, Soldic held the KSW middleweight and welterweight titles prior to his exit. In 20 pro wins, the 27-year-old has 19 finishes and is regarded as an all-action fighter.
While Soldic hinted to MMA Junkie in February he expected to sign with the UFC. In March, Soldic met with UFC chief business officer Hunter Campbell backstage in London, but he ultimately chose ONE Championship, which he signed with in August.
Ramazanov, 26, is undefeated as a professional. He’s 3-0 in ONE Championship thus far with victories over Myung Ho Bae, Hiroyuki Tetsuka, and Zebaztian Kadestam.
No other bouts have been announced for ONE on Prime Video 5 at this time.
