16 May 2014 ? Singapore: Ben Askren has been making huge waves in Asia since signing with Asia?s largest Mixed Martial Arts organization, ONE Fighting ChampionshipTM. Askren continued to make headlines this week as he embarked on a 5-country media tour to meet with the top media from the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Cambodia and Singapore.

The response to the tour was phenomenal as media from the top publications in each country attended Ben Askren?s open workout to find out more about the greatest welterweight star and his preparation for his upcoming fight. During the open workout sessions, Askren demonstrated some of his famous wrestling and ground skills before speaking to members of the press. He shared his excitement and fascination of being in Asia and meeting the media and his fans in this part of the world.

?I am super excited to be making my ONE FC debut at the end of this month in Singapore. MMA is growing so rapidly in Asia and so it?s really fantastic to be able to fight here. I have been training really hard and I can?t wait to be back in the cage to put on a fantastic fight for my fans,? Askren commented on his debut with ONE FC.

Askren will make his ONE FC debut in Singapore come this 30 May in ONE FC: HONOR & GLORY and the Olympian is eager to impress with his strong wrestling background.
