ONE Championship has announced an interim featherweight MMA title fight scheduled for October 7. The fight between Fabricio Andrade and Jonathan Haggerty has been postponed by a month. Thanh Le, the former champion, will now face the No. 3-ranked Ilya Freymanov at ONE Fight Night 15 in Bangkok. Andrade and Haggerty were originally set to battle for the vacant kickboxing title in their weight class on the same date, but their fight has been rescheduled for November 4 at ONE Fight Night 16. The promotion has not confirmed the location for the event. The winner of the Le vs. Freymanov fight is expected to face divisional champion Tang Kai by the end of 2023. Le was originally scheduled for a rematch with Tang in July, but the Chinese fighter withdrew due to a knee injury. Russian newcomer Freymanov has stepped in to face the Vietnamese-American after two consecutive finishes over former champion Martin Nguyen and Shinechagtga Zoltsetseg.
