This pairing turned out to be incredibly volatile, as the two stars engaged in a frenetic, back-and-forth war and a bona fide 2018 Fight of the Year contender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, Aung La N Sang was able to win this grueling gunfight with a beautifully timed uppercut in the fifth round. Yet this punch would not end his rivalry with Hasegawa \u2014 not by a long shot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pair will fight again at ONE: Heart of the Lion on March 31, this time in Hasegawa&#8217;s backyard in Tokyo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"ONE: Full Fight | Aung La N Sang vs. Ken Hasegawa | Thunder In Thuwunna | June 2018\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0dua-pQNMbI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the fact that he&#8217;s already been through hell with Hasegawa, and that he narrowly escaped his first collision with the Japanese fighter with a victory, Aung La N Sang says there was no hesitation to accept this rematch when it was offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t care,&#8221; he told BJPenn.com as he drove to his morning training session, with ONE Featherweight Champion Martin Nguyen riding shotgun beside him. &#8220;I&#8217;m a fighter. I keep improving and keep putting in that work. I&#8217;m happy to give him the rematch. Everybody asks me if I was reluctant to do it again. If they want me to fight him again, let&#8217;s do it again.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the champion didn&#8217;t hesitate to accept the offer to fight Hasegawa for a second time, he admits it&#8217;s not an offer he expected to receive so soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I didn&#8217;t [expect it], but I understand why they did this,&#8221; he said. &#8220;They want to be exciting. We&#8217;ve been exciting, and we will put on an exciting bout. So it&#8217;s a guarantee of excitement for them. So I understand why.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aung La N Sang didn&#8217;t expect to be invited to compete on ONE Championship&#8217;s debut card in Japan, either. He&#8217;s spent the majority of his recent career fighting in his native Myanmar, and he believed he would be scheduled for the promotion&#8217;s recent <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/one-championship\/one-reign-of-valor-live-results-and-highlights\/\">Reign of Valor <\/a>card in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I was surprised because of the fact that there was a Myanmar card so close,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I expected them to put me on that Myanmar card. But it&#8217;s a pleasant surprise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m excited to be on this card,&#8221; he added. &#8220;It&#8217;s a monumental card for ONE Championship and they&#8217;ve stacked the card with a lot of great, high-level fighters. So I&#8217;m just excited to be able to showcase my skills at that event.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With his rematch with Ken Hasegawa now less than two weeks away, Aung La N Sang is making his final preparations at Hard Knocks 365 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he trains alongside monsters like Marcel Fortuna, Linton Vassell, Luke Rockhold, and recently, Derek Brunson.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Marcel is one of my good friends and training partners, a jiu jitsu black belt,&#8221; he said. &#8220;He fought previously for the UFC. He&#8217;s got a very high level ground game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;For striking, Luke Rockhold when he&#8217;s there,&#8221; he added, running through a handful of his training partners. &#8220;I spar with the big guys like Linton Vassell, who&#8217;s now a heavyweight. This week we had Derek Brunson come out too. I got some good work with him. He&#8217;s a natural southpaw, which is good.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-instagram wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bu_qr9RHcMh\/\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Aung La N Sang can certainly take comfort in the fact that he&#8217;s been training with absolute monsters. Yet unfortunately for him, Hasegawa has been too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ahead of this rematch, the Japanese fighter moved his entire camp to Serra-Longo Fight Team in New York, where he&#8217;s been getting rounds in with UFC fighters like Gian Villante and Chris Weidman. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on this fact, Aung La N Sang expects his foe to be well-prepared for their rematch in Tokyo<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Oh for sure [he&#8217;ll be ready],&#8221; the champion said. &#8220;He moved his whole camp to Serra-Longo. He&#8217;s in New York, so I&#8217;m sure he&#8217;s made a lot of changes to the camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-instagram wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BvCPUHNHy2A\/\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While Aung La N Sang expects to meet a new and improved Ken Hasegawa in Tokyo, he&#8217;s confident that he&#8217;ll once again find a path to victory on fight night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I think skill-set wise, whatever changes he makes, I&#8217;m pretty well-rounded so I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s going to matter,&#8221; he said. &#8220;For this fight, I&#8217;m going to put a lot of pressure on him. I&#8217;m a pressure fighter, and I always look for finishes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m looking to finish the fight,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;It could be in the first round, it could be in the fifth round, but I&#8217;m going to put a ton of pressure on him and then when he feels that, he&#8217;s going to get reminded of the last fight. I see it going very similar. I know for a fact he&#8217;s going to change a few things up, but I have skills that are going to negate the changes that he&#8217;s going to make, so it&#8217;s not going to matter. It&#8217;s going to end the same way.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If all goes according to plan for Aung La N Sang in Japan, and he retains his middleweight title against Hasegawa, he then hopes to shift his focus to the other title in his position: the ONE light heavyweight strap. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He wants to defend this second belt in the very near future \u2014 and against a pretty special opponent. He has been called out by reigning ONE Heavyweight Champion Brandon Vera in the past, and is still very excited about this potential matchup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I want to defend the light heavyweight belt,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to stall either division, I want to stay active. If possible, I want to be back in a couple of months and defend the light heavyweight belt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Brandon Vera called me out \u2014 I would be obligated to do that,&#8221; he added with a chuckle. &#8220;At the press conference he called me out, and training-wise, I&#8217;m preparing for him. I&#8217;m preparing to be the best fighter I can be, but he has other plans. He&#8217;s got movie roles and stuff like that. It is what it is. But ideally, if you call somebody out, you should be ready. And as the light heavyweight champion, I want to take on the contenders. He&#8217;s the heavyweight champion, and he&#8217;s coming down a weight class, so it makes sense.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Needless to say, Aung La N Sang is gearing up for what could be a pretty incredible year \u2014 but it all hinges on his imminent rematch with the fearsome Ken Hasegawa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He&#8217;s confident he&#8217;ll win this fight, and even more confident that, just like his first meeting with the Japanese fighter, it will be a contest worth watching. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;For me, everything is one the line,&#8221; he said. &#8220;When somebody puts everything into it, it makes for a great fight. If you look at my track record, I fight with my heart. This fight&#8217;s going to be exciting. It&#8217;s going to end with a finish. If you&#8217;re a true MMA fan, tune in. It&#8217;s going to be a high-level MMA fight with a great finish.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This article first appeared on\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/\"><em>BJPENN.COM<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0on 3\/18\/2019.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In June of 2018, in Yangon, Myanmar, ONE Championship middleweight and light heavyweight titleholder Aung La N Sang stepped into the cage with DEEP openweight champion Ken Hasegawa.
