James Goyder

The card for ONE 169 at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok on November 9 now appears to be complete with the addition of three fights, bringing the line-up to 12 bouts.
Among this latest batch of matchups is an atomweight MMA bout that pits the experienced Ayaka Miura against undefeated newcomer Macarena Aragon.
Miura started life with ONE Championship as a strawweight and challenged for that title in 2022, when she lost to champion Xiong Jing Nan by decision.
The 34-year-old dropped down a division last year and goes into her fight with Aragon off back-to-back wins.
At ONE Fight Night 16, the Japan fighter finished off Meng Bo with her trademark scarf-hold armlock submission. Earlier this year Miura scored a decision win over compatriot Itsuki Hirata at ONE 165, making it two wins out of two in the atomweight division.
Miura is not currently ranked at atomweight but her record stands at 13-5 and a third successive win should see her crack the top five.

Aragon, meanwhile, has yet to taste defeat, winning three out of three since making her pro debut last August.
The 22-year-old from Argentina appears to hold a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and trains out of the famous Ribas Academy, which is home to some of the top female fighters.
Her previous opponents were all very inexperienced and she faces a big step up against Miura.
The ONE 169 card has also been bolstered by the addition of two Muay Thai fights.
In the strawweight division, Malaysia’s Aliff Sor Dechapan takes on Brazilian Walter Goncalves while at flyweight, Kongthoranee Sor.Sommai has been matched with Tagir Khalilov.
ONE 169 was originally set to take place at State Farm Arena in Atlanta but was moved to Thailand because of local partner obligations there.
That has not been the only change to the card. The lightweight title match between Christian Lee and Alibeg Rasulov has also been rescheduled and will now take place at ONE Fight Night 26 in Bangkok on December 7.
Three title fights remain booked for ONE 169.
In the main event, Anatoly Malykhin puts his heavyweight MMA belt on the line against Oumar Kane, better known as Reug Reug.
Meanwhile, Rodtang Jitmuangnong’s flyweight belt will be up for grabs when he faces Jacob Smith, while in the other title fight, Anissa Meksen takes on Jackie Buntan for the right to become the inaugural strawweight kickboxing champion.
