MANILA -- Danny Kingad will be facing a different foe for his ONE Flyweight Grand Prix fight on March 31 at ONE: A New Era at the Ryogoku Kokugikan in Tokyo.

As announced on Monday, the Team Lakay fighter will now take on Japanese Senzo Ikeda.

Ikeda replaced American fighter Andrew Leone, who begged off from the tournament due to an injury.

Despite playing in his first fight under ONE Championship, Ikeda is a champion in his own right, currently holding the Pancrase flyweight title.

The replacement is part of ONE's newfound partnership with Pancrase. (PNA)
