Shamil Gasanov has carried the sting of defeat for over a year, and now the Dagestani destroyer finally has his chance at redemption. The featherweight contender\u2019s burning desire for vengeance against Garry Tonon<\/a> has fueled every training session since their first encounter ended in heartbreak.<\/p>\n

\"Shamil<\/p>\n

The 29-year-old Gasanov faces Tonon at ONE Fight Night 34: Eersel vs. Jarvis<\/a> on Friday, August 1, inside Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. Currently ranked third in the featherweight MMA division, Gasanov enters the co-main event riding a four-fight winning streak.<\/p>\n

The bad blood traces back to ONE Fight Night 12 in July 2023, where Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu legend Tonon crushed Gasanov\u2019s undefeated streak with a second-round kneebar submission. That painful memory has haunted \u201cThe Cobra\u201d ever since, transforming him into a man possessed with settling the score. Meanwhile, the loss marked the first blemish on his professional MMA record.<\/p>\n

Subsequently, Gasanov has restructured his entire approach for this high-stakes encounter. The Peresvet Fight Team product refuses to repeat the defensive mistakes that cost him their initial meeting. His training camp has reflected this new philosophy, as he has doubled down on his grappling preparation.<\/p>\n

However, Gasanov believes his opponent\u2019s reputation may be overblown beyond grappling. He acknowledges the threat Tonon\u2019s submission game poses and has made significant adjustments accordingly.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter losing to Tonon the first time, I\u2019ve always wanted to come back as soon as possible to get another fight with Garry,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cDespite losing, honestly, apart from his grappling, he didn\u2019t show anything else in that fight,\u201d he said.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Shamil Gasanov has carried the sting of defeat for over a year, and now the Dagestani destroyer finally…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":27334,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[570],"tags":[64,63,786,785,2843,14472,14473,85],"class_list":["post-27333","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mma","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-fighting","tag-mma","tag-one-championship","tag-one-fight-night-34","tag-shamil-gasanov","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27333","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27333"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27333\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27334"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27333"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27333"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27333"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
