Wiratchai is a practitioner of the Chinese martial art Baguazhang, and will once again look to exhibit the martial art in mixed martial arts action.

Edward Kelly is the younger brother of ONE Championship standout Edward Kelly. One of the brightest featherweight talents to emerge from the Philippines, Kelly looks to get his ONE Championship career back on track with an impressive victory over Jimmy Yabo in his home country.

He performed impressively in the ONE: DYNASTY OF CHAMPIONS Beijing Featherweight Tournament, advancing to the final with a TKO victory over Li Gen.

Sunoto is a kickboxing champion from Indonesia. He is also undefeated in mixed martial arts, having won two prior bouts in his native Indonesia. Sunoto will look to keep his undefeated streak alive when he takes on Wang Ya Wei in an exciting featherweight bout.
