Reigning and undisputed ONE bantamweight MMA world champion 'Wonder Boy' Fabricio Andrade of Brazil has surveyed the divisional landscape that he currently dominates and has identified a potential challenger.

Baatarkhuu is currently riding a three-fight winning streak and has won six of his last seven fights in the world's largest martial arts organization. Notable victories have come over Adonis Sevilleno, Jhanlo Mark Sangiao, Carlo Bumina-Ang and Jeremy 'The Juggernaut' Pacatiw.
