ONE Championship: Team Lakay s Honorio Banario and Mark Sangiao share their closed-door event experience
ONE Championship Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong recently announced nine more events following ONE: NO SURRENDER, which is set for 31 July in Bangkok, Thailand. Sityodtong marked the 14th, 21st, and 28th of August; the 11th, 18th, and 25th of September; and the 9th, 16th, and 30th of October as the event days. Those shows will take place behind closed doors as a safety measure for the COVID-19 pandemic. But what is it like competing in a closed-door environment when ONE athletes are used to sold-out arenas and interactive fans? Honorio “The Rock” Banario, who competed at ONE’s first closed door event, ONE: KING OF THE JUNGLE, said that he had to make a few minor adjustments. “I had a good experience about it actually,” Banario said. “It’s like we’re just sparring, the instructions are clear because you can hear your coach clearly. There isn't any pressure and I believe it turned out good for me.” His head coach, Mark Sangiao, echoed Banario’s sentiments, though he admits that he found it odd at first, having coached in front of the liveliest crowds all over Asia. “Because we’re all so used to having a crowd, it was weird at first. You can hear a pin drop there because it was so silent,” Sangiao said. “But it turned out to be good. There’s less pressure on the athlete, and we were able to communicate well, but other than that nothing’s really changed.” ONE Flyweight Muay Thai World Champion Rodtang “The Iron Man” Jitmuangnon and his challenger Petchdam “The Baby Shark” Petchyindee Academy will get to experience headlining a closed-door event, though Rodtang promises to deliver a show for the fans watching from afar on the 31st. The ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Title will likewise be at stake as Petchmorakot Petchyindee Academy defends his strap against “The Boxing Computer” Yodsanklai IWE Fairtex. .....»»

ONE Championship reveals live event schedule until October
Asian martial arts promotion ONE Championship is set to make its return to action with ONE: No Surrender on July 31st in Bangkok, Thailand. No Surrender will be their first major live show since February 28th, before the COVID-19 pandemic forced the company to postpone all of their succeeding events. Now, it looks like it's all systems go for ONE moving forward, as chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong has shared their schedule of events up until October. After No Surrender, there will be nine more events to look forward to, three events per month on August, September, and October. "ONE Championship is ready to set the world on fire again. Catch these upcoming closed-door, audience-free shows on our global TV broadcast in 150+ countries around the world!" Sityodtong wrote. All these events will feature a closed-door, audience-free format, just like their King of The Jungle card back in February in Singapore.
