Lito Adiwang credits training at SOMA Fight Club as a “huge advantage” for his career progression.

Having established himself in the ONE strawweight MMA division since his debut in October 2018, Adiwang initially trained with the renowned Team Lakai. However, in late 2023, the 30-year-old made a permanent transition to SOMA Fight Club.

In an interview with ONE, Adiwang expressed his thoughts on the camp switch:

“It’s such a huge advantage. I’m being pushed to do something else, think outside of the box, and bring out other skills. Since they have different styles and strengths, I’m forced to adjust.”

Following a significant leg injury in a second-round TKO loss against Jeremy Miado in March 2022, Adiwang underwent a lengthy recovery process. However, he made a triumphant return in 2023, securing victories against Adrian Mattheis and Miado.

On February 16, Adiwang aims to extend his winning streak by facing the seasoned veteran Danial Williams in an anticipated strawweight MMA clash at ONE Fight Night 19.
