ONE 165, taking place in Tokyo, Japan, is gearing up for an action-packed event with the main event featuring Superlek defending his flyweight kickboxing title against Japanese superstar Takeru. Fighters have successfully completed their weigh-ins and hydration tests, with Tommy Langaker notably passing hydration on his third attempt. Joshua Pacio has teamed up with Condition Nutrition, who are also managing Takeru and Superlek's weight cuts. Iraj Azizpour paid tribute to his late compatriot Fariyar Aminipour by wearing a t-shirt during his weigh-in. The ceremonial weigh-ins and face-offs, broadcasted on ONE Championship's channels, showcased the fighters' readiness and set the stage for the confrontations, with Superlek having his easiest weight cut to date and Takeru being on weight when he woke up. Fans can watch the event via Abema PPV in Japan and Global PPV, with the main card starting at 5PM JST on Sunday, January 28.
