MMA Fighting has ONE Championship: Enter the Dragon results for Friday’s ONE event at Axiata Arena in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

On Friday, July 12, former world champion Amir Khan will challenge Australian boxer Billy Dib for the vacant WBC International welterweight championship at the King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
