The One Championship welterweight belt returned to
Kyrgyzstan after the dust settled at
One: Inside the Matrix 2.

The card’s main event saw Kiamrian
Abbasov put his welterweight belt on the line against the
undefeated James
Nakashima. The challenger started strong in the opening rounds,
breaking the nose of the champ with one of his combinations.
Despite the injury, Abbasov bit the bullet and tried his best to
ride out Nakashima offense. The American dominated the first few
rounds, especially on the ground.

In the fourth stanza, Abbasov felt the urgency to make a statement.
After recovering from an involuntary low blow, Abbasov rushed
towards his opponent. Nakashima changed levels for a takedown, but
the defending champion timed a counter knee that wobbled
Nakashima’s legs. Smelling blood, Abbasov chased his opponent
across the cage with several knees and punches. Nakashima shot in
for desperation takedowns, but Abbasov stuffed all his attempts and
kept landing. The referee stepped in as Nakashima was grabbing one
of Abbasov’s legs. The official stoppage arrived at the 3:27 mark
of Round 4.

In the co-main event, Timofey
Nastyukhin captured a unanimous verdict over Pieter
Buist. The Dutchman intelligently used his reach advantage in
the early going, keeping his opponent at distance with effective
kicks and punches. It only took one errant kick for Nastyukhin to
cast “The Archangel” down and put his back on the canvas, where the
Russian began to dominate from top position. Nastyukhin continued
the same gameplan throughout most of the remainder of the fight,
until Buist made adjustments and stayed upright. Nastyukhin’s
relentlessness made the difference as he continued to press his
opponent until time ran out. Eventually, all three judges rewarded
Nastyukhin with a rare decision victory.

The rest of the card featured quick finishes as Yuya
Wakamatsu flattened Kyu Sung
Kim with one punch at 1:46 of the first round; Eko Roni
Saputra submitted Ramon
Gonzales via rear-naked choke at the 4:07 mark of Round 1; and
Meng Bo
smashed
Priscilla Hertati Lumban Gaol with a right hand at 1:26 of the
opening frame.
