Determined to end Regian Eersel's historic reign is Alexis Nicolas, a 25-year-old scrapper from the mean streaks of Paris. Taking up kickboxing at the age of 14, 'Barboza' would spend the next decade of his life carving out an impressive 23-0 record, including an ISKA world title-winning performance that landed him a spot on the ONE Championship roster.
Nicolas made his promotional debut in January, securing a unanimous decision victory over Russian striker Magomed Magomedov at ONE Friday Fights 47. Next, he'll look to make 'The Immortal' look anything but that when the two warriors headline ONE's latest offering on Amazon Prime Video.
