Filipino star Joshua Pacio is back in action at ONE Fight Night 15 for the first time since losing the ONE Strawweight MMA World Title. The former divisional king will try to get back in the win column against Russian Mansur Malachiev. It is a matchup Pacio believes is strongly in his favor.
Pacio has been extremely motivated to return, so much so he has been willing to compete against anyone ranked inside the top five of the official ONE Championship athlete rankings. Since losing to Jarred Brooks, Pacio has been fueled with a singular mission.
