Former title challenger Mei Yamaguchi returns to the cage next month with the Japanese atomweight scheduled to face Istela Nunes at ONE: "Heroes of the World."
Yamaguchi vs. Nunes is the final addition to a nine-fight card which is set for the Cotai Arena in Macau on August 13th. The Japanese fighter will be hoping to secure a rematch with Angela Lee who beat her by decision in an atomweight title match earlier this year.
Yamaguchi (15-9-1) beat three separate opponents last year to win a tournament and become the Deep-Jewels 105-pound champion. She was awarded an immediate shot at the inaugural ONE atomweight title but was beaten by Lee in a thrilling five-round fight.
