MANILA, Philippines—A few weeks before ONE Fight Night 19: Haggerty vs. Lobo, Lito Adiwang declared how he wanted to barge into the strawweight top five with a win over Danial Williams.
On Saturday at Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, Adiwang may have done just that with a unanimous decision victory over Williams.
Adiwang went to the driver’s seat early after he dropped the Thai-Aussie fighter at the two-minute mark of the opening round.

Adiwang climbed further up in his division after improving to a professional record of 16 wins and five losses.
Williams, meanwhile, crashed to a 6-3 record.
