Watch The ONE Fight Night 23: Ok Vs. Rasulov Weigh-Ins And Hydration Tests
ONE Fight Night 23: Ok vs. Rasulov on Prime Video is almost locked and loaded.
The final obligation for the event’s 22 athletes is to step on the scale and submit a hydration sample ahead of their matchups inside the iconic Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
If they make weight and pass hydration testing, the athletes will be ready to do battle live in U.S. primetime this Friday, July 5.
Fans can see how things unfold live by watching the video below beginning at 6 a.m. ET/3 a.m. PT this Thursday, July 4.
The card is stacked with thrilling showdowns, and the main event clash between Ok Rae Yoon and Alibeg Rasulov promises to top it in style.
Duking it out for the ONE Interim Lightweight MMA World Title, former king Ok will look to secure gold for the second time when he faces the unbeaten Rasulov.
The South Korean will pit his powerful striking and strong defensive wrestling against the Turkish star’s incredible grappling game that has seen him race to a 14-0 MMA slate.
Ok is determined to earn a World Title unification fight with longtime rival Christian “The Warrior” Lee, while Rasulov could make a massive statement in his debut by taking out one of the division’s leading lights.
The stakes are high on the supporting card, with World Champions and top contenders looking for victories in important encounters.
One of those will see ONE Welterweight Submission Grappling World Champion Tye Ruotolo take on rising star Jozef Chen in a 186-pound non-title affair between two of the sport’s most prodigious talents.
Before that, Nico “King of the North” Carrillo will put his #1 bantamweight Muay Thai ranking on the line against former World Title challenger and current #4 contender Saemapetch Fairtex.
Carrillo is gunning for a World Title shot at either Jonathan “The General” Haggerty or “The Kicking Machine” Superlek Kiatmoo9 after ONE 168: Denver, and he believes that adding Saemapetch to his resume after his knockout of former king Nong-O Hama would make him “undeniable.”
Fans can also expect a pair of explosive bouts in the heavyweight divisions.
“Mighty Warrior” Kang Ji Won and Kirill Grishenko are both looking to bounce back in the MMA ranks, while upcoming ONE Heavyweight MMA World Title challenger “Reug Reug” Oumar Kane will test himself against fellow Senegalese star Boucher Ketchup in a kickboxing contest.
There’s plenty more to be excited about earlier on the card, including #5-ranked Muay Thai featherweight Luke “The Chef” Lessei against WMC Muay Thai World Champion Bampara Kouyate, and #4-ranked MMA strawweight Hiroba Minowa against KO artist Jeremy “The Jaguar” Miado.
Plus, there will be appearances from fan favorites like “The Hunter” Xie Wei, Tatsumitsu “The Sweeper” Wada, Aliff Sor Dechapan, and more.
Check out the full lineup for ONE Fight Night 23: Ok vs. Rasulov on Prime Video below, and make sure to watch the fight card beginning at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT this Friday, July 5.
