Dante Leon is set to face Tommy Langaker in a lightweight grappling match at ONE Fight Night 27 – on January 10, 2025!
With the bout taking place in the lightweight division, it appears ONE Championship is positioning the winner as the next challenger for Kade Ruotolo’s lightweight submission grappling title…
A belt he has held for over two years.
Leon had a successful ONE Championship debut just a few days ago, when he submitted Bruno Pucci in just over two minutes.
Langaker, on the other hand, is no stranger to the ONE mats.
By the time he faces Leon, it will have been nearly a year since his last appearance for the promotion.
After beating Renato Canuto and Uali Kurzhev, Langaker had two consecutive matches against Kade Ruotolo.
Even though both bouts were highly competitive, Langaker lost both via decision.
Now, the matchup with Leon offers Langaker a critical opportunity to return to the win column and reignite his pursuit of the lightweight title.
