One of Asia’s most enduring fighters is set to make his ONE Championship debut.
Former UFC, WSOF/PFL, Pancrase, and PRIDE competitor Yushin Okami (35-12) has been officially announced for the ONE Championship: For Honor show on May 3 in Jakarta, Indonesia, where he will face Kiamrian Abbasov (20-4) in a welterweight bout.
Okami, 37, signed with the Singapore-based promotion in February following a second stint with the UFC in which he went 1-2. He also competed for the UFC from 2006 to 2013, picking up notable wins over the likes of Hector Lombard, Alan Belcher, Nate Marquardt, Mark Munoz, and Mike Swick, and once challenging Anderson Silva for a middleweight championship. In between UFC stints, he went 5-2 fighting for DEEP, Pancrase, and the WSOF/PFL.
A 25-year-old from Kyrgyzstan who has competed primarily in Russia, Abbasov has won 12 of his last 13 fights. He is 1-1 in ONE, most recently picking up a first-round submission win over Agilan Thani in December.
