A highly anticipated ONE Championship welterweight title fight rematch between Ben Askren and Luis Santos at ONE: Pride of Lions later this year.
Following a report from The Las Vegas Review-Journal, ONE Championship officials confirmed the news on Tuesday night.
Askren and Santos squared off for the first time at ONE Championship: Valor of Champions this past April. The bout ended due to an eye-poke in the first round, and was declared a no-contest.
In Askren’s (14-0, 1 NC) first ONE appearance, he stopped Bakhtiyar Abbasov in 2014. Four months later, he knocked out former champion Nobutatsu Suzuki to gain the 170-pound belt.
