Jake Peacock will be back in action when ONE Championship arrives in Georgia this fall at ONE 169.
At ONE 169: Atlanta, the limb-different athlete will take on Shinji Suzuki in a bantamweight Muay Thai contest as part of a stacked lineup inside the State Farm Arena on Friday, Nov. 8.
Peacock made his ONE debut at ONE Friday Fights 58 in April. The Canadian striker inspired the world with a unanimous decision victory against Kohei Shinjo.
Peacock confirmed his skills in the bout, showing he was certainly worthy of stepping onto the global stage. The Road to ONE winner will now have another chance to impress against a craft veteran.
The 31-year-old has no plans to slow down when he makes his walk down the aisle in Atlanta.
But Suzuki is not coming to the U.S. to lay down for anybody. He has his eyes set on the division’s upper echelon.
The Japanese athlete is coming off an impressive victory of his own. At ONE 166: Qatar, Suzuki defeated Han Zi Hao to pick up his first win in the promotion. A win over Peacock would push him another step forward in the division.
The bantamweight bout will propel the victory closer to contention. The massive event gives each athlete a platform to showcase their skills and deliver an unforgettable performance.
The Muay Thai collision joins an absolutely loaded card for ONE’s Atlanta debut.
ONE 169: Atlanta airs live on Prime Video on Friday, Nov. 8. Tickets for the event are on-sale now via Ticketmaster.
