ONE Championship was called up by Aung La Nsang and Yushin Okami on Twitter. They want the promotion to create a fight between them. Both fighters seem to have agreed that fighting is the best way forward.

It started when, in a social media post, ONE Championship asked fans for the best possible opponent for Nsang. Okami volunteered and indicated that he and Nsang had verbally agreed to fight.

“@AungLANsang and I have a deal to fight together! We’ll show you all of our best fights. We’re waiting for the contract,†Okami said on his Twitter account.

It didn’t take long for “The Burmese Phyton” to respond and acknowledge Okami’s tweet.

“It would be a great game. I was a fan of Yushin and I always support him because he embodies the Japanese fighting spirit. This game will not disappoint,” Nsang replied.

The last time Nsang entered the cage was against Leandro Ataides in July. It was a good win for the Myanmar-based fighter after losing both of his titles to Reiner de Ridder.

Meanwhile, 40-year-old Okami also earned a comeback victory after losing three consecutive fights in ONE Championship. His last victory was a close split decision against Agilan Thani in October 2019.


Go back to ONE title

For a while, Aung La Nsang led the ONE Championship. He held both the middleweight and light heavyweight titles for over a thousand days. He was on a seven-game winning streak and beat seemingly invincible heavyweight champion Brandon Vera in that race.

His popularity was at its peak, but he lost his belts one by one to Reiner de Ridder. After tasting their first win after losing back-to-back defeats, ‘The Burmese Phyton’ would like to hold another title soon.

Tangling up with veteran fighter Yushin Okami and achieving victory could help him make his case to ONE Championship president and CEO Chatri Sityodong. That could convince the promotion boss to give Nsang another shot at the title.
