BANGKOK--Eugene Toquero, who has been a fan favorite in the Philippines, will try to score an MMA win in hostile territory as he faces Thai fighter Anatpong Bunrad in One: Kingdom of Champions on May 27 at the Impact Arena.
Known for his striking and more importantly his comedic antics that provide the Filipino fans some laughs, Toquero, who pushed Adriano Moraes to the limit in their recent meeting, will now try to impress the Thai crowd as he lock horns with home country favorite Bunrad in one of nine matches scheduled for the said MMA fight card.
