A welterweight title fight between Ben Askren and Luis Santos at a ONE Championship event will not go forward after Santos couldn't make weight. A few times.
ONE Championship had been promoting two title fights for their "Pride of Lions" card this weekend. After a debacle on the scales, neither bout ended up being on the line. And the most anticipated fight, a bout between Ben Askren and Luis Santos, didn't happen at all.
Askren and Santos were set to rematch after a No Contest earlier this year. But Santos ended up coming in at 172 pounds, two pounds over the welterweight championship fight limit.
