MANILA, Philippines — Filipinos will finally get to see Eduard Folayang back in action when the Team Lakay legend faces Antonio Caruso of Australia on Friday in ONE: Inside the Matrix at Singapore Indoor Stadium.

Folayang (22-9), the former two-time lightweight champion, hopes to put himself back into the title picture against Caruso (7-1) after losing to Pieter Buist in Manila last January.

Although ONE Championship’s return to Singapore will remain audience free due to the pandemic, the stacked event will be shown live in many countries including the Philippines.

The show will be live on One Sports+ at 8:30 p.m. while One Sports will air the event on a same-day delay at 9 p.m. TV5 will also broadcast Inside the Matrix on Saturday at 11 p.m.

The event features six fights, highlighted by four world title showdowns with Aung La N Sang defending his middleweight belt against Reinier De Ridder in the main event.

In the co-main event, Christian Lee puts his lightweight strap on the line against Iuri Lapicus.

Meanwhile, featherweight king Martin Nguyen makes a title defense against Thanh Le while women’s strawweight champion Xiong Jing Nan will be tested by Tiffany Teo.

An atomweight clash between Ritu Phogat and Nou Srey Pov will kick things off.
