Fresh off a spectacular victory last week, Anthony “The Archangel” Engelen will step up to compete at ONE: WARRIOR’S DREAM this Saturday, 17 November.

The Dutch-Indonesian featherweight will jump into the fray at the Stadium Istora in Jakarta, Indonesia to face Jimmy “The Silencer” Yabo in a 72-kilogram catch weight bout on the main card.

A representative of the Indogym team, Engelen returned to ONE Championship against Meas Meul at ONE: HEART OF THE LION last Friday, 9 November.

The 33-year-old only needed 39 seconds to put his Cambodian opponent to sleep with a spectacular head kick.
