Mikey Musumeci has reached ‘another level’ mentally ahead of Osamah Almarwai’s match

At ONE Fight Night 10, ONE Flyweight World Submission Champion Mikey Musumeci will return to the Circle for the second defense of his world title.

On May 5, ONE Championship will host its first event in the United States. Live from the 1stBank Center in Broomfield, Colorado, the promotion brings a card packed with some of the biggest names on its roster.

With three world title contests scheduled for the undercard, three world flyweight champions will be in action, representing ONE’s MMA, Muay Thai and submission grappling divisions.

For his fourth competition within the Circle, Musumeci will take on Osamah Almarwai in a very high level matchup. Despite his opponent’s accomplishments, many fans would still consider Musumeci a heavy favorite due to his recent run of dominating performances.

In a recent interview with the South China Morning Post on YouTube, Mikey Musumeci spoke about his mindset entering this contest on one of the biggest nights in the promotion’s history:

“I don’t know, I feel like I’m very right right now. My mind is stronger than ever. I think that’s the most important thing to me. I have so many ups and downs, but mentally right now, I’m on another level.”

In his last title defense, Musumeci absolutely dominated his opponent Gantumur Bayanduuren at ONE Fight Night on January 6. Since he won ONE’s inaugural world flyweight grappling championship in October, ‘Darth Rigatoni’ has established himself as one of the torchbearers to establish ONE as the new home for elite fighters.

In ONE Fight Night 10, he will face osamah almarwai in another high-stakes matchup. The full card will stream live and free on May 5 via Prime Video for North American viewers.
