Jhanlo Sangiao, son of Team Lakay head coach Mark Sangiao, will also make his debut as he takes on Paul Lumihi of Indonesia.
Ending another year in ONE Championship with a bang
Team Lakay fighters have graced ONE Championship and have headlined numerous fights since their first card back in February 2012. This will be their biggest delegation yet on foreign soil:
“We are honored by the trust that ONE Championship has placed in Team Lakay. This is a huge opportunity for us to close the year on a positive note, and we are very proud to represent the Philippines on the biggest global stage of martial arts competition,” Sangiao said to ONE Championship.
It has been an up-and-down year for the Philippines-based stable, earning a handful of wins and victories. Their opponents in ONE: Winter Warriors II will definitely be a challenge but Team Lakay promises to put on a good show and hopefully earn the victory:
“Our warriors will be going up against a handful of very tough opponents, so it's not going to be easy," said Sangiao. "Rest assured that we are working double time in the gym to produce a favorable outcome. Through our hard work and dedication, we will triumph.”
