Team Lakay holds Media Day

Team Lakay Media Day

ONE Championship recently held a media session involving Filipino MMA outfit Team Lakay, with ONE Lightweight World Champion Eduard “Landslide” Folayang, former ONE Featherweight World Champion Honorio “The Rock” Banario, Geje “Gravity” Eustaquio, Kevin “The Silencer” Belingon, Edward “The Ferocious” Kelly, Joshua Pacio, Danny “The King” Kingad, Gina “Conviction” Iniong and April Osenio in attendance. The team was accompanied by legendary Philippine MMA coach and head of Team Lakay, coach Mark Sangiao.

According to Folayang, "I am still overwhelmed by the support that the whole Team Lakay is getting from the entire nation. We are all grateful for every cheer, support and prayer. It keeps us inspired, motivated, and humble. Our goal every fight night is always the same, which is to bring honor to our country."

Sangiao adds, "We are happy to celebrate this feat with our friends in the media and our beloved followers from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. We came from the mountains of Baguio City, but we represent the colors of the Philippines in the global stage. Last April, we accomplished a 5-0 sweep, including Eduard's successful title defense. We came and overcame the challenges. However, the journey doesn't end there. As martial artists, we are here to grow and learn."

Just one Team Lakay fighter has an upcoming match scheduled, with Eustaquio set to face Anatpong Bunradthis coming May 26 at the ONE: Dynasty of Heroes MMA event at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
