ONE: Dawn of Heroes live stream, results and highlights

By Tom Taylor - August 2, 2019

On Friday, ONE Championship returned to Manila, Philippines with an absolutely stacked card in ONE: Dawn of Heroes.

Demetrious Johnson, Dawn of Heroes

The card was topped by a featherweight title fight between ferocious champion Martin Nguyen and surging Japanese challenger Koyomi “Moushigo” Matsushima. The co-headliner, meanwhile, saw ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Champion Jonathan Haggerty attempt to defend his strap against Thai tank Rodtang Jitmuangnon.

For Western fans, the most notable features of the ONE: Dawn of Heroes card were the latest appearances from former UFC champions Demetrious Johnson and Eddie Alvarez.

The former UFC flyweight champion Johnson took on Japan’s Tatsumitsu Wada in the semifinals of the ONE Flyweight World Grand Prix, while the former lightweight champion Alvarez took on two-time former ONE Lightweight World Champion Eduard Folayang in a ONE Lightweight World Grand Prix semifinal bout. Alvarez and Folayang’s bout was not initially part of the tournament, but was added after a slew of injuries.

ONE: Dawn of Heroes was also supposed to feature the ONE debut of former UFC heavyweight Arjan Bhullar, but his opponent Mauro Cerilli failed a pre-fight medical, nixing the matchup.
