The growth of MMA in South East Asian countries like the Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand has been well documented, but Myanmar seems to have slipped under the radar. It might not be home to many high level training facilities, but the public appetite for the sport there is virtually insatiable. ONE Championship will hold its third ever event in Yangon this week and it looks set to be the biggest yet. Behind the surge in interest of the sport is Burmese middleweight Aung La Nsang who will be fighting in his birthplace for the second time on Friday night.
