Lito Adiwang found redemption in rematch against Jeremy Miado

At ONE Fight Night 16 in November 2023, Lito Adiwang finally got redemption against fellow Filipino MMA star Jeremy 'The Jaguar' Miado. 'Thunder Kid' snatched a much-deserved unanimous decision victory after a pulse-pounding three-round MMA brawl.

Their first bout was in March 2022 at ONE X, which Adiwang lost via TKO due to a freak injury he suffered during the fight. The loss pushed the Filipino fighter to go under the knife and take a break from the sport for an entire year to heal his injured knee.

After a year since the first Miado fight, Adiwang returned to action at ONE Friday Fights 34 and KO'd Adrien Mattheis in just 23 seconds. Just less than two months later at ONE Fight Night 16, Lito Adiwang rematched Miado and produced an instant classic.

'Thunder Kid' edged 'The Jaguar' out with his power and striking accuracy to earn the unanimous decision win.
