It seems that Danny Kingad will face a new opponent in the semifinals of the One Championship flyweight grand prix which will take place at One: Dawn of Heroes. Kingad was set to lock horns with Kairat Akhmetov, but the latter was forced to pull out due to an undisclosed injury. Australia’s Reece McLaren will compete in the former One flyweight champion’s place.
“The King” Kingad (10-1) earned his spot in the semifinals of One’s tournament by besting Senzo Ikeda via unanimous decision at One: A New Era in March.
