Dutch middleweight contender Reinier de Ridder picked up a crucial win at “ONE Championship 108: Warrior’s Code” to earn a shot at reigning champion Aung La N Sang.

As tasks go, they don’t get much bigger for “The Dutch Knight.” Check out the best of the action from his victory, as well as highlights from the other big winners of the night, including a big muay Thai knockout from Australia’s Josh Tonna, a hometown victory for Eko Roni Saputra , a superb submission finish by Iuri Lapicus and the best of the main event, which saw Thailand’s Petchmorakot Petchyindee Academy win the inaugural ONE featherweight muay Thai title.
