The ONE Championship Experience: A Fan\u2019s Perspective<\/strong><\/p>\n

by Jessie Aguilar Suarez<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The star-studded ONE Championship event I attended last 23 November 2018 showed the world what this premier MMA organization has yet to offer. Aptly dubbed Conquest of Champions \u2013 Vera vs Cerilli, the card offered MMA fans a peek of the rich talent pool ONE Championship has. From the undercard to the main card, the audience was treated to a spectacle of martial arts proficiency and high-level competition.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Having attended 2 UFC events in the past, UFC Fight Night 39 Abu Dhabi \u2013 Nogueira vs Nelson and UFC Fight Night 66 Manila \u2013 Edgar vs Faber. Here is what I enjoyed the most with ONE Championship\u2019s approach:<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nWalk-Off Stage \/ Ramp<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fighters are introduced in an elevated platform with a ramp leading to the cage providing a unique vantage point for audiences in the arena. An impressive LED screen shaped like a ONE Championship Belt in the background displays the fighter\u2019s profile and a live dugout view of each competitor stepping on the stage, as fireworks and smoke display sets an exciting atmosphere.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Mixing it Up: Muay Thai & Kick Boxing<\/strong><\/p>\n

ONE Championship incorporated a striking only competition under the Muay Thai and Kickboxing Super Series. Purist of the striking arts will certainly enjoy the subtle differences of a striking only match versus that of MMA. Although similarly enjoyable to watch, a fast-paced action-packed collision of martial arts masters provided a welcome break from MMA in between contests. Asia, being the home of martial arts, is celebrated by ONE Championship with this uniquely noteworthy model.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Bushido \/ Chivalry \/ Respect<\/strong><\/p>\n

Call it whatever you like but with trash talk being the \u201cstandard practice\u201d nowadays, ONE Championship has separated itself from the mainstream idea that drama sells fights. They focused primarily on local heroes and genuine fighter\u2019s r\u00e9sum\u00e9 instead of a make-believe rivalry or hatred towards one another. Combatants treat each other with respect on and off the cage.
\nA respectful bow to the ONE Championship leadership for upholding this.<\/p>\n
