Jomary Torres figures in no contest to open ONE: Fire and Fury


It was not the return that Jomary Torres expected. 

Trying to snap out of the worst skid in her career, the 24-year-old native of Zamboanga was hit with two fouls in her bout against Jenny Huang, leading to a no contest, Friday evening during ONE: Fire and Fury at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.

Torres — who is on a four-fight losing streak since September 22 — started the bout aggressively. She quickly threw fists and fire against the former challenger to the ONE Atomweight World Championship.

Huang hit Torres with an unintentional hit to the groin, though, prompting a brief stoppage two minutes into the bout.

Though the fighter out of Catalan Fighting System was able to shrug it off, she again took a hit — this time a knee from the Thai plum. Torres could not get up after five minutes, resulting in the stoppage.

Torres, who last defeated April Osenio back in January of 2018, is now 4-4-1 in her career. Meanwhile, Huang went to 5-5-1.
