MANILA \u2013Roy Doliguez will make his return to the One Championship cage as he looks to inch closer to a second chance at the promotion’s strawweight title.<\/p>\n

The former boxer will face Brazilian fighter Alex Silva at One: Throne of Tigers at the Stadium Negara in Kuala Lumpur on Feb. 10.<\/p>\n

Doliguez, who has a 6-3 record as an MMA fighter, first vied for the said belt in 2015 against then champion Dejdamrong Sor Amnuaysirichoke.<\/p>\n

Doliguez will make his One comeback against Silva as he begins his quest to get back in the running for the title now owned by Yoshitaka Naito.<\/p>\n

Another Filipino will see action in the said card as Burn Soriano will take on hometown hero Saiful Merican.<\/p>\n

Soriano etched a name in the game after a 15-second knockout of Mario Wirawan, one of the fastest in the history of the promotion.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Ahmed Mujtaba will also make his return to One with a showdown against another Malaysian in Keanu Subba.<\/p>\n

The Pakistani pugilist became a household name in the Philippines last year after taking the inaugural UGB featherweight title on Jan. 23 at Circuit Makati and successfully defended it at WSOF-GC 3 on July 30 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City before relinquishing it to join One.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
