Ben Askren’s first title defense at ONE Championship ended in a no-contest after "Funky" poked Luis Santos in the eye in the first round, and the rematch is on the way.
Santos, who had his right cornea scratched by Askren, recently returned to training at American Top Team, and expects to be back in action in a rematch with Askren this fall.
"I think it’s going to be in September," Santos told MMAFighting.com. "I don’t know exactly when, but my manager said September. My eye is fine. I had a good treatment. I’m already back to training.
