ONE FC: Ole Laursen Injured, A Sol Kwon Steps In to Headline Against Eduard Folayang
Ole Laursen suffered an injury during training putting a halt to one of the most anticipated fights in Asia. Stepping in on his ONE FC headlining slot will be DEEP, SRC, and Legend FC veteran, A Sol Kwon, who will be taking on Eduard Folayang in under three weeks notice. The promotion announced the news today:
Ole Laursen has seriously injured his knee during training and will be unable to compete on September 3. URCC Champion Eduard Folayang (9-1) will now face the very dangerous HEAT FC Welterweight Champion A Sol Kwon (19-6) from Korea.
The Korean striker is currently on a six fight winning streak, and is no stranger to fighting often and on short notice. He had a busy 2010, winning 6 out of his 8 total fights that year. This will be his fourth fight this year, with his last two bouts coming from the same month.
Kwon is talented and has a fan-friendly fighting style, making him an excellent pick up for the promotion. The bout against Folayang should still be guaranteed to be entertaining either way, but it's just a real bummer that Laursen had to drop off a fight that lots of people have been looking forward to.

Bodog Fight Partners with OneFC
As reported on their facebook page, former fight promoter Bodog has partnered up with OneFC to bring you some of the best action in MMA. The number of partners OneFC has taken in is truly exceptional as this is their first show. The promotional power behind this event is unlike anything we have ever seen for an inaugural event. Flyers, billboards, commercials, and so forth are rampant about Singapore, and Asia is being taken by storm.
OneFC premiers on September 3rd and will be aired live on Sherdog.com. Tickets are still available, although they are anticipating the event to not have many tickets left come showtime.

While rules were not yet officially announced, rumor has it that ONE Fighting Championship will institute Pride Fighting Championships rules combined with the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts; allowing for soccer kicks, head stomps, and permitting the use of elbows.[2]
The event will also be broadcast to 24 Asian countries by ESPN Star Sports and broadcast on domestic TV in Singapore by MediaCorp Channel 5.[3] The event will be streamed live on Sherdog.com to all countries except Singapore.[4]
This has led multiple media sources to describe ONE Fighting Championship: Champion vs. Champion as "the biggest event in Asian mixed martial arts history" and to speculate that the TV audience might be the biggest ever for a mixed martial arts event.[5]
On 17th August, 2011 it was announced that A Sol Kwon, a Korean fighter on a six fight win streak, would be replacing the injured Ole Laursen in the main event against Eduard Folayang.

Not that there was a lack of exciting news out of Singapore regarding the event coming up next week, OneFC announced today that the legendary Matt Hume will be the head chief of the officiating crew, as well as rules director for the promotion. Matt Hume, as many of you know, has a history with PrideFC and DREAM in the same role. In addition, the man of a million boo's, Yuji Shimada, will be officiating for the organization. This could break a record - it could be the first show in a while (since Strikeforce) that Shimada does not receive an unrelenting number of boo's from the crowd.

^^ Same Reason they don't list events like Legend FC. (Which is at worst the 2nd best Asian promotion right now IMO behind possibly Dream) Not enough interest...

The Ultimate Fighter season five contestant Andy Wang was the sole fighter to have trouble on the scales, coming in at 163.1 lbs - 4.1 lbs over the 159-pound weight limit. It is assumed at this stage that Wang's opponent, Carlos Gracie, Jr. Brazlian Jiu Jitsu blackbelt Zorobabel Moreira, will take 15 percent of Wang's purse and the bout will be contested at a catchweight. The bout was initially set at 155 lbs but it is believed that Wang requested the bout be moved to 159 lbs in the weeks leading up to the fight.
