Still Curious, Adrian Mattheis Wants To Fight Again With Alex Silva At ONE Championship: We’ll See Who's Best

JAKARTA - Indonesian fighter at ONE Championship, Adrian Mattheis, is still curious about Alex Silva. He wants a third meeting with the Brazilian fighter after previously losing at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, 3 June.

The defeat made the meeting record of the two fighters to 1-1. In the first match, Adrian Mattheis won by TKO over the former world champion in the Strawweight division, although it was a bit of a controversy.

Seeing the position is still the same, Matheis wants to fight again with Silva. He wanted to prove who was the best of the two.

"With the results in the second match, the position is still the same. I want a third match to see who wins. Only then will we know who is the best," said Mattheis, as quoted by Antara.

Mattheis said the defeat in the second match was because he conceded and did not quickly remove his left foot from Silva's grip. The defeat also delayed the fighter redeeming the top five rankings.

However, the fighter who grew up in Sorong, West Papua, was not discouraged.

"What people see is not what I feel. I have a struggle to make people proud," said Adrian Mattheis.
