One Championship: Dawn Of Valor Predictions

It’s almost time for One Championship: Dawn Of Valor. The card seems alright, it should be a decent card by the looks of it. The card has two title fights and a debuting John Lineker which I’m looking forward to seeing how he does. Let’s jump into the predictions.

Eko Roni Saputra Vs. Kaji Ebin

The opening bout is a Flyweight contest. I predict that Saputra’s wrestling will be a big factor in this fight. He takes on 2-2, Kaji Ebin but I just can’t see Ebin winning this if I’m being honest and I’m saying that Saputra wins this by decision.

Prediction: Eko Roni Saputra (Decision)

John Lineker Vs. Muin Gafurov

I really like John Lineker and despite missing weight on several occasions, I think he’s a great fighter. However, he is matched up against a combat sambo champion who is 17-2. I don’t think Lineker will win his ONE debut, and even though Lineker has never been stopped by strikes, I think this one he will be. Don’t get me wrong, if Lineker keeps the aggression and avoids getting took down (he does have a brown belt in BJJ though), he may get a decision or TKO win. But, I think Lineker loses this and Gafurov gets the win here.

Prediction: Muin Gafurov (2; TKO)

Federico Roma Vs. Wang Junguang

I think this is a very hard fight to predict. I’m happy to see a strawweight fight on the main card, excited to see what these two can do but I’m predicting a third round victory for Wang Junguang via body kick.

Prediction: Wang Junguang (3; TKO)

Priscilla Hertati Lumban Gaol Vs. Bozhena Antoniyar

Again, another hard fight to predict but I’m going to give Gaol a slight edge. She is 15-5 in Wushu and 6-4 in MMA. I think she’ll get a decision victory.

Prediction: Priscilla Hertati Lumban Gaol (Decision)

Regian Eersel (C) Vs. Nieky Holzken (ONE Lightweight Kickboxing Championship)

I cannot wait for this fight! This is my fight of the night in my opinion. This isn’t the first time these two have fought either, they fought at Enter The Dragon back in May but now they fight again and honestly, I’m saying Regian Eersel wins this again. I think he’ll win on points just like he did the first time but I do think it’ll be a great fight.

Prediction: Regian Eersel (Decision)

Zebaztian Kadestam (C) Vs. Kiamrian Abbasov (ONE Welterweight Championship)

Main event time! The challenger, Kiamrian Abbasov is 21-4 and won his last 3 fights. He takes on the 29 year old champion, Zebaztian Kadestam. This should be a really fun fight but I do see a title retention here in the third round via knockout.

Prediction: Zebaztian Kadestam (3; TKO)
