Lightweights clash is at ONE Fight Night 43 as Alibeg Rasulov will square off against Lucas Gabriel on May 15 in Bangkok, Thailand, sources tell Cageside Press.

Rasulov (14-1, 1NC), is coming off an unsuccessful bid for the ONE Championship lightweight title, falling to champion Christian Lee at ONE 173 last November. The bout followed their first meeting, which ended in a no contest due to an accidental eye poke. Prior to that setback, Rasulov had been on an impressive 14-fight unbeaten run.

Gabriel (10-1, 1 NC) enters the bout following a decision victory in February. That win came after a previous result in his favor was overturned to a no contest due to a positive test for Furosemide and Betamethasone. The promotion suspended Gabriel for six months which he served, and is now back to action.

Now cleared and back in the win column, Gabriel aims to move past the controversy and reestablish himself as a rising contender.

ONE Fight Night 43 takes place in at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand on May 15th. The event will broadcast live on Amazon Prime in the US. The card, as of now, is as follows:

Kai Tang vs. Shamil Gasanov – ONE Featherweight Championship
YodlQ Or.Pimonsri vs. Kiamran Nabati – ONE Bantamweight Bout
