Former ONE champion Ok Rae-yoon won by unanimous decision against US mixed martial arts giant

Ok Rae-yoon (32) has prepared a stepping stone for the return to the top of Asia’s largest group, ONE Championship, in mixed martial arts.

On the 6th (Korean time), ‘ONE Fight Night 10’ was held at the First Bank Center (capacity: 6,500) in Broomfield, Colorado, USA. Ok Rae-yoon, ranked first in the official One Championship lightweight ranking, won an away match against Rowan Tynerness (33) by unanimous decision.

In August 2022, Ok Rae-yoon won a comeback in 253 days (8 months and 10 days) after failing to defend the lightweight title in the first round. He has shown that he deserves a shot at the One Championship again.

One Championship’s official website also said, “Ok Rae-yoon overpowered Tynerness in a thrilling, fast-paced confrontation. The former lightweight champion won a decisive victory against an American mixed martial arts giant.”

The opponents for the 7th win of Tynerness include former featherweight champion Honorio Banario (34, Philippines) and lightweight title challenger Koji Ando (38, Japan). The One Championship website praised him, saying, “Ok Rae-yoon struggled with wrestling defense, but showed an overwhelming superiority with boxing that peaked with sharp jabs and poisonous punch combinations.”

Although he came down from the top with a rematch defeat with Korean fighter Christian Lee (Lee Seung-ryong), One Championship ranks Ok Rae-yoon as the first in the official lightweight rankings, acknowledging his status right next to the 토스카지노 champion.

The One Championship homepage highly praised him for continuing his good blows without being swayed by wrestling classics, saying, “It is impressive that he punished Tynerness with conspicuous superiority in the other areas, even though he exposed his shortcomings in grappling.”

After starting her career as a mixed martial artist in 2013, Ok Rae-yoon has experienced stages in ▲China, ▲Japan, and ▲Singapore, but ‘ONE Fight Night 10’ is the first time he fought in the United States. Overcoming his unfamiliar surroundings also enhances the value of his victories.
