“Who do YOU think will win a ONE World Title first in 2023?” ONE Championship posted.

A quartet of names immediately popped up in the comments section, and these were Roberto Soldic, Saygid Izagakhmaev, Fabricio Andrade, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu legend Marcus ‘Buchecha’ Almeida.

“Saygid dethrones [Christian] Lee,” one fan answered.

“Saygid Izagakhmaev for sure,” another one replied.
“Roberto Soldić,” one fan briefly answered.

Fabricio Andrade, though, is the one on the precipice of a world title when he faces John Lineker for the vacant ONE bantamweight world title at ONE Fight Night 7 on February 24 at the iconic Lumpinee Boxing Stadium. The world title rematch bout between Andrade and Lineker will be the second time that they will face each other. The two Brazilian knockout artists first met for the vacant world title at ONE on Prime Video 3 in October 2022.

The first meeting between the two rivals, however, ended in a disappointing no-contest after Andrade accidentally hit Lineker in the groin past the halfway point of the third round. Nonetheless, the rivals will have a chance to end all controversy in their rematch at ONE Fight Night 7, which will be streamed live and for free to Prime Video subscribers in North America.
