MANILA, Philippines — Filipino strawweight Lito Adiwang clashes with American Jarred Brooks in the main offering of the ONE: NEXTGEN III set Nov. 26 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.

The 28-year-old Adiwang has climbed back to No. 5 in the division after beating Japanese Namiki Kawahara and Chinese Hexigetu Hexi last year to improve his record to 13-3.

A win by Adiwang over Brooks, who owns an impressive 16-2 card, would push the former closer to a potential title shot against reigning champion and countryman Joshua Pacio.
