The fight card for ONE: State of Warriors in Yangon is complete with a bantamweight bout between Yusup Saadulaev and Jordan Lucas the most notable addition. As previously announced, the show will be headlined by Aung La Nsang vs. Michal Pasternak and also features a strawweight title fight.

Saadulaev (15-4-1-1) has been signed to ONE Championship since 2012, but has only fought six times for the promotion. He’s beaten the likes of Adriano Moraes and Hideo Tokoro and is currently riding a three-fight winning streak.

His opponent at the Thuwunna Stadium on Oct. 7 will be Jordan Lucas (8-1). The Australian was undefeated when he signed with ONE Championship, but was submitted by Edward Kelly in his promotional debut, which coincidentally took place in Yangon.
