Jeremy Miado is taking some extra precautions in order to properly cut weight and pass hydration before stepping into the circle on Friday night.
‘The Jaguar’ is scheduled for a potential strawweight world title eliminator at ONE Fight Night 11 on Prime Video. Emanating from the legendary Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Thailand, Miado will attempt to score his fifth-straight victory en route to a title shot with reigning ONE strawweight world champion Jarred Brooks.
But before Miado can start booking his trip to title town, he’ll first need to get past weigh-ins and his undefeated opponent, Mansur Malachiev.
Jeremy Miado will head into the ONE Fight Night 11 weigh-ins understandably nervous after failing to make hydration for his October 2022 clash with Danial Williams. Speaking with The MMA Superfan, ‘The Jaguar’ confirmed that he will have a plan in place to cut weight while giving himself the best possible chance to meet the required hydration levels:

“Probably about a week before the fight, I’ll try to figure out the right way to lose [weight] while still passing the pre-fight [hydration] tests.”
Looking to spoil the party will be Russian debutant Mansur Malachiev. Fans may not be familiar with the well-rounded wrestler, but they soon will be. After nearly a decade in the sport, Malachiev has amassed an impressive 10-0 record with eight victories coming by way finish. With a healthy mix of knockouts and submissions to his credit, Malachiev is a threat anywhere the fight goes.
