Tye Ruotolo will face lightweight MMA contender Dagi Arslanaliev in a catchweight submission grappling match at Lumpinee Stadium, the promotion announced on Tuesday.

Turkey’s Arslanaliev has not competed since December 2021, when he scored a third-round TKO against Timofey Nastyukhin in a Fight of the Year contender.

In another change, Supergirl Jaroonsak will now fight Lara Fernandez in a catchweight kickboxing bout on Saturday morning. The matchup was confirmed on Monday.

Spain’s Fernandez replaces Cristina Morales, just three weeks after she suffered a 28-second TKO loss to Phetjeeja Ormeekhun at ONE Fight Night 12.
