Aung La N Sang has targeted a return to One Championship action by April after undergoing surgery on his thumb – and called out undefeated middleweight Reinier de Ridder.
“The Burmese Python” revealed the cast on his right hand will be coming off in two weeks, and he’ll be ready to resume full training.
“Sleeping good, eating good, but I can’t train so well right now,” the light heavyweight and middleweight champion told the Post in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

N Sang suffered the injury during his second-round TKO win over heavyweight champion Brandon Vera at October’s One: Century card in Tokyo. It put paid to his plans to fight on this week’s One: Mark of Greatness card in Kuala Lumpur.
“I didn’t know it was broken until after they took my hand wraps off,” he said. “I didn’t think it was that bad until I got the X-ray. The bone was totally out of line. I had to get the surgery, got two pins in it. Just healing it now.
