“It is a privilege ad honor for us to be the promoter for ONE FC in Indonesia.

With ONE FC, 7Kings will present to Indonesia a world-class mixed martial arts event, with unmatched visuals, lighting and media production,” stated Aldo Menayang, CEO of 7Kings Entertainment.
Adriano Moraes joined ONE FC as one of the most touted prospects in the world and demonstrated his ability by overcoming the experience of Yasuhiro Urushitani in his last ONE FC bout, boosting his record to 10-1. Moraes is one of the most talented mixed martial artists to emerge from Brazil in recent years and will look to claim a memorable win with a victory over Suzuki.
Previously a Shooto fighter, Kosuke Suzuki accumulated an impressive 10-3 record and is looking to boost that with another victory in ONE FC on 14 June in Jakarta. This will be Suzuki’s ONE FC debut and he will be bringing along his “Rambo” persona and fighting flair to the ONE FC cage as he aims to prove himself as one of the best flyweights in the world.
Since making his professional mixed martial arts debut in 2003, Fransino Tirta has amassed an unblemished 15-0-1 record. Tirta is only the second Indonesian home-grown Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt. He is also a multiple-division winner in grappling, and has beaten world-class competition in sanshou, boxing and combat sambo. His well-roundedness is legendary having started training 12 years ago in Japanese Jiu-jitsu and adding wrestling, boxing, sanshou and grappling into his arsenal. This June, Tirta is set to proudly represent his homeland on a global stage of MMA as he faces Egyptian mixed martial artist Sami Amin.
Egyptian Sami Amin will also be making his ONE FC debut this June when he faces Indonesia’s Fransino Tirta. With a record of 4-1, Amin won most of his fights via TKO and looks like one of the most promising MMA talents to come from Egypt. Winning this fight against Tirta will further his case as an exciting mixed martial artist and move him one step closer to a future title opportunity.
