Pinoy MMA fighter Eugene Toquero battles former champ in Myanmar

 

Filipino mixed martial arts fan favorite Eugene Toquero is slated to make his return inside the cage when he faces former flyweight champion Adriano Moraes in ONE Championship: Union of Warriors on March 18 at Thuwanna Indoor Stadium in Yangon, Myanmar.

 

An entertainer both inside and outside the cage, Toquero is one of the fast rising MMA fighters from the Philippines thanks to the exciting striking style he brings inside the cage.

 

Toquero, 34, holds a record of 8-2 and is coming off an impressive TKO victory over Chinese fighter Li Wei Bin this past December.

 

Moraes, meanwhile, is coming off a split decision loss against Kairat Akhmetov in China where he lost his ONE flyweight title. A ground game specialist who holds a win over notable Team Lakay fighter Geje Eustaquio, Moraes boasts a record of 13-2.
