Middlesbrough heavy hitter Paul Elliott is set to headline ONE Fight Night 48 in a high-stakes world championship clash against Shamil Erdogan. Scheduled for broadcast on Sky Sports during the early hours of Saturday, October 3, the card features top-tier combat sports action from top to bottom. Outside of the heavyweight title main event, the lineup includes a critical featherweight Muay Thai showdown between American striker Luke Lessei and England’s Charlie Guest. That crucial pairing will determine who advances toward a future shot at the belt currently held by Nico Carrillo.
Also joining the October 3 event is an exciting atomweight bout pitting Hong Kong standout Yu Yau Pui against British competitor Marie McManamon. The lethal striker from China earned her $100,000 roster spot with ONE Championship following a stellar run in the weekly ONE Friday Fights circuit that commenced back in 2023. Having finished four of her five opponents by knockout, Yu has built a reputation for halting fights at a moment’s notice. She now prepares to welcome one of Great Britain’s most respected martial artists back to the global stage.
McManamon enters this matchup determined to bounce back after taking a defeat in her previous outing against Selina Flores. Renowned across the UK circuit for her conditioning and crushing kicks, she previously captured championships in both the Roar Fighting Championship and Victory League before challenging for a ONE world belt. Stepping directly into another high-profile fight, the British standout aims to re-establish her position among the division’s elite.
