'The King' was expected to showcase his superior striking against the wrestling pedigree of Saputra, but he was able to prove that he was not just a savage on the feet but also a threat on the ground.

Kingad has rag-dolled the Indonesian star throughout the three-fight bout with his improved grappling skills.

Aside from winning most of the scrambles and exchanges on the ground, the Filipino MMA sensation has also pulled out his spinning attacks. In fact, he even landed a picture-perfect spinning elbow on Saputra's face in the second frame to daze him.

Eventually, he secured the victory and collected his 11th win in ONE Championship.


Danny Kingad will face Adriano Moraes in a rematch on November 8 at ONE 169

Seven years after suffering a first-round submission loss at the hands of former ONE flyweight MMA world champion Adriano Moraes, Kingad is now given the opportunity to avenge it, as he will face the Brazilian superstar in a rematch on Nov. 8 at ONE 169.

The two flyweight contenders will collide inside the Lumpinee Stadium in a crucial matchup that could determine the next challenger for the coveted 26-pound golden belt, especially since Demetrious Johnson relinquished it recently due to retirement.
