Undefeated Dagestani newcomer faces Lucas Gabriel in the lightweight MMA main event on Prime Video.

A major shake up has hit the upcoming ONE Fight Night 49 event scheduled for Friday, November 6. The combat sports card takes place live in U.S. primetime from the famous Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, broadcast globally on Prime Video.

Undefeated newcomer Magomed Magomedov stepped in on short notice to face Lucas Gabriel in a high stakes lightweight MMA main event. The Dagestani fighter accepted the bout after original headliner Alibeg Rasulov was forced to withdraw due to an injury, according to information published by bjpenn.

The promotion had to scramble for multiple replacements on the card to ensure all major bouts moved forward. Fans around the world eagerly await this explosive mixed martial arts showdown featuring two of the division's top talents.
