Story

After a year-long injury enforced absence, Ole Laursen finds himself up against a very strong fighter in his comeback fight. Felipe Enomoto has made a name for himself on the European circuit and has already been in several fights with tough UFC veterans.

Laursen knows what it's like to be facing a comeback fight. He fought two of the top mixed martial artists in Japan when he first started as an MMA fighter and will now take a five-year, five-fight winning streak into the cage. He is a muay thai and kickboxing champion who will want to finish the fight fast using punches, kicks, knees and elbows.

Enomoto has a decades of BJJ experience and may well go searching for the submission. However, he has also trained extensively in both muay thai and boxing and is no stranger to fighting on his feet.

Interestingly enough, both men have a mixed heritage. Enomoto was born in Switzerland to Japanese parents while Laursen was born in the Philippines but raised in Scandinavia. They are both returning to their Asian roots and will want tot make a good impression fighting in the continent where many of their family members are based.

Story

Honorio Banario is the URCC Lightweight Champion, but will be dropping down to featherweight for the first time in his career for this fight. Bae Young Kwon is coming off a big win against Brian Choi at Road FC 4 and is an extremely versatile fighter with no real weaknesses.

Banario has a perfect professional record of 6-0 and combines unconventional wushu based stand up skills with strong wrestling and submissions. He is a member of Team Lakay and trains in the high altitudes of Baguio, which gives him outstanding stamina.

Kwon always looks for the knockout, but has also secured wins by submission and decision. Hw will be by far, the best opponent Banario has ever faced. But Filipino fighters are legendary for being tough, and URCC champions tend to do extremely well against international competition.

Story

Two champions from opposite ends of the world will meet in a clash that will pit Khabilov's sambo against Ribeiro's BJJ. Both fighters will not just be representing their country, but their sport. Khabilov is from Russia and a world champion in combat sambo while Ribeiro is from Brazil and a champion in BJJ.

Both are the best of the best in the most popular combat sports in their respective countries and have plenty of MMA experience. Khabilov is an up and coming prodigy who has an outstanding record with his only loss coming by way of split decision. Ribeiro is the older of the two, bringing vast experience into the cage as well as a third degree BJJ black belt. He knows that a win over the highly rated Russian would revitalize his career.

Russians are hugely proud of sambo and believe it is the best martial art for competing in MMA, while Brazilians are equally proud of BJJ. As such, two of the most dominant style in the sport will be put to the test in this fight.

Story

Gustavo Falciroli is a second degree BJJ black belt and one of the most accomplished ground fighters in all of Australia. Although Soo Chul Kim has experienced facing a grappler of this caliber before - having gone three rounds against BJJ world champion lEANDRO Issa at ONE FC 1 - this will be another very tough test for the young Korean.

Kim impressed a lot of people with his performance at ONE FC 1 and his willingness to take the fight to his opponent. He showcased an exciting fight punctuated by flying knees and quick combinations. Although ultimately he came up short on the judge's scorecard, he will have leaned a lot from the experience and will be looking to do better against Falciroli.

The Australian is the reigning Cage Fighting Championship bantamweight belt holder while Kim held a title at featherweight with the RisingOn promotion in Japan. This promises to be a particularly fun fight for the fans.

Story

Peter Davis is famous in his native country Malaysia for his acting and modeling work but is looking to make a name for himself as a mixed martial artist. He is primarily a stand up fighter and has an unorthodox kung fu based style.

Ngabdi Mulyadi forged a reputation fighting for TPIFC a few years ago and made a successful comeback to MMA at the FOBI qualifiers in 2011. He is a decorated wrestler with over a decade's experience of competition and he won a bronze medal for Indonesia at the 2009 SEA Games.

This is a classic striker vs grappler match up. With a Malaysian and an Indonesian in the cage, national pride is at stake. Both men will be absolutely desperate to walk away with the win.

Story

This fight sees two veterans of the Indonesian martial arts scene meeting in the ONE FC cage for a battle of Indonesian welterweight supremacy. Nanang describes himself as a wrestler and after 12 Indonesian MMA fights, the Bandung based fighter should be extremely adept at taking the fight to the canvas.

Silawanto has been out of action for a while but like his opponents, he prevailed at the FOBI qualifiers, which were held in Jakarta last December. He is known to fight fans from the TPIFC days when he went head to head with some of the best fighters in the country, running up a record of 7-6 and registering wins by both submission and knock out.

Silawanto has a background in kick boxing, pencak silt, yusikaindo and submission wrestling and isn't afraid to stand and strike. With both men sufficiently experienced not to make mistakes this fight could well go the full three rounds.
