Kurosawa and Henrique set for strawweight bout at ONE Fight Night 47
Ryohei Kurosawa faces Fabio Henrique in a strawweight MMA contest at ONE Fight Night 47 in Bangkok on September 4.
Ryohei Kurosawa and Fabio Henrique are scheduled to compete in a strawweight MMA bout at ONE Fight Night 47. The event is set to take place on September 4 at the Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
Kurosawa enters the matchup with a professional record of 20-6. The Japanese fighter is currently attempting to break a two-fight losing streak. His most recent setbacks came in defeats against Keito Yamakita and Bokang Masunyane. Before this period of consecutive losses, Kurosawa had achieved a six-fight winning streak. A victory over Henrique would serve to return him to the win column and help him rebuild his standing in the division.
Henrique holds a record of 15-2 and aims to maintain his upward trajectory in the ONE Championship strawweight division. His last appearance in the cage was in May, where he secured a stoppage victory against Yosuke Saruta. While Henrique has been inactive for over a year, he enters this contest with significant momentum. Defeating Kurosawa would provide him with back-to-back wins and further his reputation as a serious contender.
The ONE Fight Night 47 card also features a flyweight Muay Thai contest between Jordan Estupinan and Jaosuayai Mor Krunghepthonburi, which serves as the co-main event. Additionally, Stamp Fairtex is included on the card as she continues her comeback. Fairtex is coming off a split-decision win against Cynthia Flores in June.
