One FC signs Fransino Tirta

I

ndonesia'€™s mixed martial artist Fransino Tirta will fight in Kuala Lumpur next month in his first match since signing with ONE Fighting Championship.

'€œI'€™m glad that we have come to an agreement, and I can focus on training for my next fight. I cannot wait to fight under the ONE FC banner and show the true quality of Indonesian MMA to the world,'€ Tirta said in a release on Tuesday.

Since making his professional mixed martial arts debut in 2003, Tirta has amassed an unblemished 15-0-1 record.

He is Indonesia'€™s first homegrown Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt, having won multiple-division in grappling, world-class competition in Sanshou, boxing and Combat Sambo.

ONE FC'€™s next event will be held at Stadium Negara in Malaysia on March 14.

Titled '€œWar of Nations'€, the contest will be headlined by a Welterweight World Championship matchup between American wrestler Brock Larson and Nobutatsu Suzuki of Japan.
