Follow him ONE: Heavy Hitters last minute demo on January 14 due to COVID-19 protocol, the 29-year-old was forced to sit back and watch his rival Senzo Ikeda steal the show with a savage knockdown his replacement, Elipitua Siregar.

In an interview with the promotion, Miado gave props to both fighters as they were quick to adjust, but clearly gave Ikeda more praise:

“I know and I expect that from him. I can say I was surprised with how both athletes performed in that match, but I was definitely impressed with Ikeda. You can see him. How determined he was to win and he really did his best to win that fight.”
