ROBIN Catalan finally gets to fight Indonesia's Elipitua Siregar as the Filipino strawweight returns to action after more than a year out.
Catalan and Siregar clash in One 157: Petchmorakot vs. Vienot on Friday at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
The two were scheduled for a January match but Catalan was pulled from the card due to COVID-19 health and safety protocols. Siregar went on to compete, losing to Senzo Ikeda via TKO.
Catalan last fought in January last year, losing to Ryuto Sawada in a first-round stoppage.
“I’m really excited to be back in One Championship. It’s been awhile since I competed. With all that waiting, and the postponement of our previous fight, I am truly pumped up because at last this match will finally push through,” Catalan said.
