“He’s one of the most well-known martial artists in the world. In many ways, he’s a legend. Sharing the ring with him is my honor and privilege. At the same time, I don’t plan on backing down. He deserves the best challenge and I’m going to give it to him. I’m here to represent Asia in this battle between the East and the West.” Matatandaang naagaw kay Folayang ang kanyang lighweight title kay Japanese legend Shinya Aoki sa ONE: A New Era. Pina-knockout naman ni Alvarez si Timofey Nastyukhin sa kanilang ONE debut sa parehong card.
