Singapore-based ONE Championship is days away from its U.S. debut. With the first ONE event on American soil comes new fighters, rule sets and scoring criteria.
Now more than a decade into promoting combat sports, ONE CEO Chatri Sityodtong thinks his company has found a better way to judge fights than that of the Unified Rules of Mixed Martial Arts, which has been adopted by all state commissions in the U.S. and adhered to by most major MMA promotions.
Sityodtong is excited to see how some potential new viewers in the U.S. respond to the scoring that will be used at ONE Fight Night 10 on Friday in Broomfield, Colo.
