Four more bouts have been added to One FC 23 as Kevin Belingon faces Koetsu Okazaki, Honorio Banario faces Herbert Burns, Roger Gracie faces James McSweeney and Jake Butler faces Sylvain Potard. Belingon has won just three of seven fights in One FC competition, with his last fight being a loss to Dae Hwan Kim at One FC 14. Okazaki will enter the fight riding a two fight winning streak and he once challenged for the One FC Bantamweight Title.

Banario will enter the fight riding a three fight losing streak and he is a former One FC featherweight Champion. Burns has spent the majority of his career in One FC, most notably defeating Harris Sarmiento at One FC 14.

Gracie will be fighting for the first time since his UFC release, which came after a loss to Tim Kennedy at UFC 162. McSweeney is a fellow UFC veteran and he is currently undefeated thus far in his two fight stint in One FC.

Butler has spent his entire career in the One FC promotion and none of his fights have yet to go to the judge’s scorecards. Potard already holds a win over Jake Butler, which came via second round knockout at One FC 11 in 2013. One FC 23 takes place on December 5th from the Mall Of Asia Arena in Manila, Philippines with Bibiano Fernandes and Dae Hwan Kim headlining.
