'Indian Tigress' roars into spotlight

Wrestler Ritu Phogat proves a surprise hit with impressive MMA debut in Beijing

Indian wrestler Ritu Phogat stole the show at One Championship's return to Beijing on Saturday with a ruthless performance in her debut for the mixed martial arts promotion.

Despite varied results for the local favorites at the show, 'Age of Drgaons', One Championship's third event in the capital since 2014, proved a huge hit at Wukesong Arena, where 13,000 spectators oohed and aahed at every punch, kick and knockdown on the 11-bout card, which included two world-title fights.
