ONE strawweight MMA World Champion Joshua Pacio of the Philippines knows he cannot be one-dimensional against one of the division's most dangerous finishers.'The Passion' will seek two-division supremacy by challenging reigning ONE flyweight MMA world champion Yuya Wakamatsu at ONE 173 on November 16.Knowing ‘Little Piranha’s penchant for putting his foes to sleep with his thunderous strikes, Pacio knows his grappling will be key to victory.However, the 29-year-old Filipino still plans to approach with caution and not force the issue.While speaking with the ONE Championship, he said:"The fight will always start on the feet. But if I get the opportunity to take him down, I'll take it. We're really planning to mix things up. I understand he's a really strong striker."Meanwhile, Pacio is confident he can hold his own in striking exchanges, given his elite wushu foundation honed in the mountains of Baguio.But it’s the Lions Nation MMA representative’s evolution as a more balanced martial artist, particularly with his wrestling and jiu-jitsu, that allowed him to rule the 125-pound ranks.Not fighting Wakamatsu where he is at his strongest is a smart choice for Pacio, as he bids to become his country’s first-ever two-division MMA world champion.
