This will be our first, and long overdue trip to Australia, and we will get into some exciting activities for the upcoming episodes.”

This region has already produced some elite level talent in ONE Championship including Martin Nguyen, Ev Ting, Reece McLaren, and Adrian Pang, among others. I'm also expecting the stakes for our activities in this region to be upped significantly, so viewers can look forward to that this season."
