May burns brightest at its center – and on Friday, May 15, fire meets fury when the world’s largest martial arts organization returns with ONE Fight Night 43: Tang vs. Gasanov, which broadcasts live in U.S. primetime from Bangkok’s Lumpinee Stadium.

In the headline attraction, two of the most dominant featherweight mixed martial artists in the sport today have reached the peak of their powers and will collide in a heated showdown for the ONE Featherweight MMA World Title.

Tang Kai has demolished every single featherweight MMA fighter in his path to claim the 26 pounds of gold and become China’s first male MMA World Champion. The 30-year-old’s dangerous blend of precision striking, unheralded knockout power, and wrestling prowess has made him a constant threat every time he steps inside the squared circle.

But now, the Chinese star makes his second ONE Featherweight MMA World Title defense against Shamil “The Cobra” Gasanov, a man who may very well be his kryptonite. The 30-year-old Dagestani has a near-flawless record, using his powerful stand-up arsenal, renowned grappling, and submission expertise to overwhelm the competition. And after avenging his only career loss, this “Cobra” is ready to strike and may be unstoppable now.

More blistering matchups will be announced in the weeks to come, and fans can expect to see the world’s greatest MMA, Muay Thai, kickboxing, and submission grappling stars compete on what promises to be a red-hot card.
