Danielle Kelly, Ayaka Miura To Compete In Submission Grappling Match At ONE On Prime Video 7
It'll kick off on February 10.
Danielle Kelly, a top Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fighter, will make her third visit to the circle, and this time, she’ll be up against a formidable judo expert.
The American superstar will face former MMA World Title contender Ayaka Miura in a 10-minute submission grappling match at ONE on Prime Video 7: Lineker vs. Andrade II on February 10.
Kelly, who has won both of her ONE Championship fights, looks to earn her third straight $50,000 performance bonus.

The BJJ black belt was last in action at ONE on Prime Video 4 in November. Before that, she competed in the first women’s submission grappling fight in ONE Championship history at ONE X this past March.
That night, the 27-year-old quickly dispatched Mariia Molchanova, the reigning Sambo World Champion, with a rear-naked choke victory in under two minutes.
Miura will try to stop Kelly’s reign of domination though.

The Japanese powerhouse has entrenched herself as one of MMA’s most dangerous grapplers. Every four of “Zombie’s” wins have included submission.
Kelly, meanwhile, is a submission expert who poses a danger in almost every position. She can take the back and look for chokeholds just as easily as she can assault leg locks from her renowned guard.
On the other hand, Miura employs a straightforward yet ruthlessly efficient strategy.
