We have an amazing event planned for fans in Kuala Lumpur, as our ONE Championship athletes get ready to electrify the stadium with dazzling performances.

He now holds black belts in both disciplines, proving his proficiency and dedication to both. After moving to Japan to further his martial arts career, he began training in kickboxing, BJJ, and grappling as well. Over the course of a highly-successful career, Jadambaa has faced some of the biggest names in the world, and went on to capture the Legend FC lightweight title before becoming the ONE Featherweight World Champion.
