Brazilian lightweight Rafael Nunes has pulled out of his ONE: Warrior’s Quest fight with Eddie Ng due to an unspecified injury. He will be replaced by Ariel Sexton, who has stepped up to take the bout at three week’s notice.
The card is set for the Singapore Indoor Stadium on May 22 and sees Ng (7-2) make his comeback after breaking his arm last year. Initially slated to face Nunes, he will now be taking on the Costa Rican BJJ black belt instead.
Sexton (9-3-0-1) burst onto the Asian scene with a stoppage win over seasoned Malaysian Peter Davis.
