The best we can do now is pray: Lito Adiwang on his surgery

Team Lakay star Lito Adiwang is all set to undergo surgery for the injury that he picked up at ONE X against Jeremy Miado. Speaking to GMA, the Filipino MMA star noted that he was hoping that the injury was not serious.

“This is totally unexpected. I was really hoping that it was not a bad injury but apparently it was. I need to accept and overcome. I really believe everything happens for a reason, and maybe the reason for this is I need to be hungrier,” Adiwang noted.

ONE Championship will be covering the cost of Adiwang’s surgery and he expressed his gratitude for the same.

This was the second-straight loss for Adiwang after his loss to Jarred Brooks. When closing, Adiwang concluded that he will be making a strong return soon.
