ONE rebooks Maurice Abevi vs. Samat Mamedov after cancellation

Maurice Abevi vs. Samat Mamedov is back on the ONE calendar.

Initially scheduled for ONE 168 in September, Abevi (8-1) and Mamedov (10-0) will now collide Jan. 24 at ONE 170 at Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand, promotion officials recently informed MMA Junkie.

The first booking between the two fighters was canceled due to an injury to Mamedov.

Abevi rides a two-fight winning streak into the matchup. He most recently competed in May when he defeated UFC alum Lipeng Zhang by unanimous decision. Prior to that, Abevi finished Blake Cooper, brother of PFL standout Ray Cooper III, by first-round TKO.

Mamedov is a finisher with nine stoppages in 10 appearances with six submissions and three TKOs. The bout will be his promotional debut, which comes after he choked out UFC alum Will Chope in 71 seconds for Kazakh promotion Octagon League.

With the addition, the ONE 170 lineup includes:

• Tawanchai PK Saenchai vs. Superbon Banchamek – for muay Thai lightweight title

• Fabricio Andrade vs. Won Il Kwon – for bantamweight title

• Superlek Kiatmoo9 vs. Nico Carrillo – for muay Thai featherweight title
