    ONE looking to raise more money from Qataris, future tho shakey

    3 rounds aside from title fights as well. Based on the one throwaway show I went to in their Friday series, they do well attendance-wise there but it's also a pretty small arena. At this point, I'd be perfectly fine with them scrapping mma altogether and just doing muay thai / kickboxing but...

    News Sage Northcutt has gone off on ONE Championship on social media regarding his withdrawal from ONE 165 in Tokyo.

    Fair. It's been like 15 years since I last thought about Barnett so really had no clue how reliable a statement that was. Given it does seem to be a new change, there probably is truth to what he said.

    News Sage Northcutt has gone off on ONE Championship on social media regarding his withdrawal from ONE 165 in Tokyo.

    Defending One is not a hill I'm going to die on because it would be an absolute slaughter, but the Barnett tweet does bring up some interesting questions. If you take it at face value, there was no issue with the cornermen not having work visas and there never was any threat of jail time. Did...

    PBP Free Live Stream: ONE Friday Fights 48 ‘Kongthoranee vs. Mazoriev’ (7:30 a.m. ET)

    The one time I went to see one, the Thai lady behind me near blew out my ear drum. It was to the point that even others in the audience and around the ring were giving her the wtf looks because she'd pop off at the most random of times. Was still a great time and will definitely go back next...

    News ONE charging $40 for next weeks Friday Fights 46

    I just checked, it costs the equivalent of USD 3.50 here so it depends on where you live. It's still free in Thailand, for example.

    PBP PBP-ONE Friday Fights 33-Saenchai vs Balyko – YouTube – 8:30am ET / 5:30am PT

    Just got back from this. Skipped out before the last two fights because the new lumpinee stadium is pretty far away but was still well worth the cost and time spent. Holy crap are the women at these shows loud. This was my first stadium show in probably 14-15 years and will make a point of...

    News Amazon Prime is the new home of ONE Championship in the USA and Canada

    Cheers for that. I've got the box but let my subscription run out about a year ago due to getting a weak incoming signal and nothing on there to watch. Might be worth renewing given it's only like $5 a month. I usually watch shows later in the day though rather than the 6:30 am - 8:30 am start...

    News Amazon Prime is the new home of ONE Championship in the USA and Canada

    I can only speak for Myanmar but no UFC here anymore unfortunately. We had UFC from 2012 - 2021, originally through a terrible channel called ASN and then through Fox Sports Asia. Fox shuttered their asian channels, so to my knowledge, no more free UFC on tv and I'd have to buy Fight Pass. From...

    News Amazon Prime is the new home of ONE Championship in the USA and Canada

    I might be remembering wrong, but it still aired on all regular tv channels is does in Asia. Problem was, it's the flip side of the coin to the US viewers, so we were watching at like 7 am.

    Some old Shooto legends Sato & Sakarai

    Saito was pretty much a mythological hero in the late 90s. That little Japanese dude pulling off crazy submissions was considered on a whole other level at the time. Hell, Andre Pederneiras made his name off of a win against him and John Lewis' draw against him was HUGE on his resume at the...

    News Singapore’s government currently banning Russian athletes from competing on ONE events

    Fair enough. Hit a bit too close to home for me. Brother in law recently jailed for 3 years for facebook post, amongst other things.

    News Singapore’s government currently banning Russian athletes from competing on ONE events

    I don't use twitter. It's banned in country, can't be bothered to use a vpn to get around it. Annoying when people post stuff off twitter into threads like announcements because I can't see but that's my only gripe there. Maybe it's over-used, I don't know. My point stands - if we are making...

    News Singapore’s government currently banning Russian athletes from competing on ONE events

    What an unbelievably stupid comment. In my country, they are jailed, tortured and it is not uncommon for them to die while in custody. Have some basic decency. And all for a terrible Nutella joke? Be better.

    PBP ONE Championship X: Sat. MAR. 26, 1:00 AM ET/10:00 PM PT PBP Discussion Thread

    I was thinking Sapp at the time but could not remember a second of that fight and figured I would have. Did Le Banner also do some mixed fight with Abidi when they were feuding? That feels like something that happened, either mixed mma and kickboxing or mixed boxing and kickboxing.

    PBP ONE Championship X: Sat. MAR. 26, 1:00 AM ET/10:00 PM PT PBP Discussion Thread

    Especially given how the fight played out, which was what most of us expected, it's insane that this is even a conversation right now.

    one fc bankrupt inevitable?

    Yeah, the idea that there is no money to be made in ASEAN is a bit ridiculous. Between Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines, that's a lot of potential viewers. While they won't be willing to pay nearly as much as UFC would like, there's still enough to go around for One to...

    News Singapore’s government currently banning Russian athletes from competing on ONE events

    Threatening and invading are two different things. What might have happened does not amount to what is happening.
