ONE: Warrior’s Dream results – ONE Championship crowns a new welterweight champ (highlights)

On Saturday night (Saturday morning in North America), ONE Championship returned to Jakarta, Indonesia with ONE: Warrior’s Dream.

This exciting, finish-filled card, was topped by a welterweight title fight, as Swedish knockout artist Zebaztian Kadestam battled undefeated American wrestler Tyler McGuire for the ONE welterweight title vacated by Ben Askren. With less than 30 seconds left in the fight, Kadestam won with a huge, last-minute knockout.  

Elsewhere on the card, we saw former Glory champ Nieky Holzken make his ONE Championship debut in a rematch with Brazil’s Cosmo Alexandre. Holzken won this fight in devastating fashion, putting his foe down with a rocket-fuelled uppercut in the second round. 

Other highlights of the card included appearances from Priscilla Hertati Lumban Gaol, Lerdsila Phuket Top Team, and the rising Anthony Engelen. 

Here are the full results of Saturday’s exciting ONE Championship card.
