ONE Friday Fights 15 - 2022-05-05
Lumpinee Boxing Stadium, Bangkok, Thailand

Friday at 8:30 AM ET here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQZo2pcCxKg

Nakrob Fairtex gets promoted to the main event after two previous wins on ONE Friday Fights. He was scheduled to fight tonight’s opponent, Ploywitthaya, at OFF 9 in March, but Ploywittaya withdrew due to illness and Nakrob instead ended up knocking out Jaiyi Chen via body knees. Nakrob noted he expects this fight to be tougher than his two previous bouts, since it is his first Thai opponent in OFF.

Ploywitthaya makes his ONE debut in this main event. Thboxing lists his record since the beginning of 2022 as 4-2, with his last fight being a decision loss to Phaidaeng in February. He won silver medals in Muay Thai at the Southeast Asian games in 2017 and 2022. He has noted that under ONE rules, he is going to try to transition his style from mostly kicking over to more punches and elbows.

Here's a crazy fight between two guys that are inexperienced from last week's Krush show, worth a few minutes of your time
Juki Sakamoto (4-2, 1 KO) vs. Ryusei Imamura (Debut) (121) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrS7bq6D7Io

I'd be interested in watching it, but it's extremely strange format. It says "1 minute 1 round" fights. And I guess they are putting the 8th show on next weekend? Is there a copy of any of the first 7 anywhere?

EDIT: The shows are on Abema PPV and the old ones are behind a paywall still, so like they haven't even unlocked BreakingDown4 from a year ago to watch even though I have Abema Premium and can watch all Krush / RISE / etc. stuff. The Youtube page only has interviews and PVs. What is this promotion?

Equity role in PFL
Chairman of PFL Africa
Super-fight PPV back end
Advisory role to board

All things that are worth literally nothing to him and the fighter community as a whole.

Oh well, take what you can get I guess, the real value was him showing it can be done at all, escaping from the UFC.

RISE lost Cygames as a sponsor and as a result Abema has picked up the title sponsorship and is moving the big shows to a PPV model on their streaming service, when previously they had aired them all for free live and you could watch the VODs if you had Abema Premium.

Not a good look but as long as they continue to put the fights up on Youtube a week later at least Tape Delay can live on. The monthly Korakuen Hall shows will be on regular Abema at least.

Not a good look meaning Abema is not doing well to switch to this revenue model?
RISE were most likely making most of their money from the gate, right?
Not a good look in terms of losing a major sponsor, which means that Cygames thought there wasn't any upside left in the company now that Tenshin left.

Kvlt! posted:

i recently got into watching Muay Thai on youtube, whats the best promotion if I wanna watch some live/keep up with the scene?
ONE Friday Fights is the best and has English commentary. Airs Friday morning 8:30 AM ET for about 4 hours. They do small gloves and three rounds. Make sure you also catch the ONE Fight Nights monthly on Prime, those usually have a few MT/KB fights with the highest-ranked fighters.

RWS (Rajadamnern World Series) is also a top promotion, does not have English commentary but has an English ring announcer and graphics. Fights air Saturday morning US time and get posted after as single files on Sundays, with a “full show” file also going up on Tuesday (edit: or Thursday or something). They do boxing gloves and three rounds. Biggest names are Petchyindee guys that left ONE recently, such as Capitan, Rittewada, and Petchmorakot.
This is last week’s show. They’re running their annual tournaments starting in May. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hUBFCvpffM8

Looking on Youtube, I see a few accounts that appear to upload new fights:
https://www.youtube.com/@Myanmar4you/videos put one up 3 days ago
https://www.youtube.com/@karenview-yc1zi/videos looks like a new channel from the last two weeks that has loaded a few fights
https://www.youtube.com/@YDAChannel/videos several fights loaded in the last two weeks, this one might be the most active, looks like they even have full shows
