Those Thai names are really funny. This Superlek Kiatmoo9 IRL might be some kind of "white tiger purple lotus deadly elbow" by given name (joking). I think this is the name of his gym plus a nickname, because there are Petpanomrung Kiatmuu9 and Singdam Kiatmuu9.

Either venue is really huge, or people are really going to spend whole day in it. First event starts at 7:30 in the morning, second at 8 in the evening. Both main fights are worth watching and I cant imagine people sitting there whole day waiting for those two fights. Motorcycle fans have iron butt challenge, August 26 regular people gonna have same challenge

When I 1st saw his name I googled it and it was real, but he surely has a real name but I think many will not able to read it, and upon seeing his records he got a zebra records on his Wikipedia it was surely hilarious but at the same time kind of confusing at seeing it but never the less he surely has some good moves,

Well, I think it surely got the same venue but had a different time the ONE Championship 160: Le vs. Tang was going to be at 07:30 AM ET while ONE on Prime Video 1: Moraes vs. Johnson 2 was at 08:00 PM ET so that both events will be held at the same venue, I will surely give my predictions later when I finish my research,


For me, after seeing the recent Contender Series it was pretty much OK and I surely thought that Dana White was just giving the contract to just 3 fighters because the two ended up in a decision wins and I don't really recall what they have done to get the UFC contract but maybe Uncle Dana White have seen some determination in them, but I think it is out of pity they ended up getting the contract, then again I don't really want to get into much details with this contender series now because the Cyril Gane and Tai Tauvasa is a much exciting fight to watch in my opinion, and I had so much to do in making my research on the ONE championship fights,

They can do that and they have one day difference with this two events, they are mixing of sports like Muay Thai, kickboxing and other combo sports for mixed rules.
Other reason is currently they have One Grand Prix Tournament in Muay Thai.

Dana White Contender Series Week 5 is starting in few hours, and main event Eduardo Neves vs Michael Parkin could be a heavyweight bomb.
They both still have perfect MMA record so one of them will fall today, but other fights are also worth watching.
This fights are like narcotics and drugs fix for Dana White, you perform good and he doesn't need to take cocaine today 

It always make me smile when fighters have prefix like super and a number in name

These Asian guys from ONE are crazy. How can they have ONE on Prime and One 160 on the same day and in the same venue. 18 fight in one day. A lot of fights are in "low" weight division, so dont expect a KO, but expect 3*3min or 5*3min non stop brawls. With all that entrances, fighter presentations, pauses between rounds, congratulations, spectators gonna have breakfast, supper and dinner during this event Snack bars gonna get rich that on August 26.

Well, I think you talking about the ONE on Prime Video 1: Moraes vs. Johnson 2 we can surely put it here for discussion and I can surely provide my picks and what I think and what may to the fights, and here are the details of the event and after seeing this event I was interested with a certain Fighting Kittens and that are Amber Kitchen, Diandra Martin, Itsuki Hirata and Heqin Lin

I am more interested in watching One Championship event starting day after with main event Demetrious Johnson vs Adriano Moraes for Bantamweight Championship belt.
Never before I saw one organization making two events in two days, but second one is targeted more for viewers from Unites States and Canada and it will be broadcasated on Prime.
Before One events there is also warm up with Week 5 of Dana White Contender Series worth watching.

I think the next event was the LFA 140, which will be up on August 26, next was the anticipated UFC Fight Night Paris, where I got to see Cyril Gane back in action, but before these events, there will be a ONE Championship 160: Le vs. Tang event on Friday, same as LFA 140 August 26, but here is the fight event if you know any fighter then make your pick

I missed some good MMA events in last few days, for KSW I don't know most of the fighters on that fight card, but there was PFL 9 Playoffs with more familiar faces.
Kayla Harrison won again against Martina Jindrova and her perfect records continue to 15-0, so it's just a matter of time when Dana White will sign her in UFC.
Lightweight will gain a lot for Harrison, she still has few more years of fighting and she was team USA in Olympic Games two tiimes.

^
It seems that the Heavyweight division in the KSW seems just about to start, with the Unranked Arkadiusz Wrzosek this is his debut in the KSW, and fighting Tomasz Sarara, that only has 1 win in the KSW, and here we can also see a fighting kitten, the beautiful Karolina Owczarz that seems that have 6 fights on the KSW, but her opponent Natalia Baczyńska seems like a powerhouse so she better be careful,

---

But right now I want to share an event the One Championship which will have an event on 08.26.2022 and may feature Rae Yoon Ok VS, Christian Lee, I haven't watched the latest events on the One Championship, but this one I will sure give my opinion and picks when the event progresses, I am a fan of Brandon Vera back then when he is on his Prime, that time he is the Heavyweight Champion for One Championship belt, I haven't really watched his fight back when he was in the UFC he surely has a good start back then but his records become a zebra pattern and decided to switch to One Championship,

tomorrow in warsaw with a total of 9 fights the ksw 73 event will take place
the main event will see former glory heavyweight star Arek Wrzosek (0-0) make his mma debut against fellow kickboxer turned mma fighter Tomasz Sarara (1-0).
and tuf brazil winner and ufc veteran Reginaldo Vieira (15-6) will face former ksw titleholder Daniel Rutkowski (13-3) in the co-main event.

Congrats to Esteban Ribovics, Claudio Ribeiro, Jose Johnson, Hailey Cowan, and Nazim Sadykhov all 5 of the winner of the Contender Series was handed a contract by Dana White, even though the fight between Jose Johnson and Hailey Cowan was a decision and not that interesting Dana White maybe out of pity give the both of them a chance, but surely he was very satisfied by Nazim Sadykhov, Esteban Ribovics and the 25 second knockout of Claudio Ribeiro, was the big highlight of the fight, and I think it was not a boring contender series because of these three,

---

And the upcoming event for PFL 9: 2022 Playoffs I really want to see how Kayla Harrison fights against Martina Jindrová pretty much I will make a list of picks for this fight the same date as the UFC 278 Usman VS Edwards, 

It's possible he could sign new contract for UFC or Bellator if they offer him good contract deals.
Heavyweight division is very strong in UFC and I don't know if he would have great time in UFC, but he can't know that until he tries.

Back on Week 4 Dana White Contender Series that is starting in few hours, and we have interesting fights to watch.
Most of them have great MMA records but I am interested to watch main event Thomas Paull vs Esteban Ribovics.
Check out preview of this event on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JapTKA9nuak

Nice fight. Ande Delija has huge potential. If he did not win that million, I think he is not going to sign new contract with PFL and we will see him in UFC. UFC are already waiting for him and he could have made a debut there already two year ago. However, he probably earns more in PFL and have more fight (4, while UFC offer only 3 per year, and he would probably would get a "newbie salary" there first).

Glad to see Mirko. I've read he had a stroke and from pictures in the internet he looked bad. Glad to see him being so healthy, and as you say, participate in Delija team.

Great win for Ante Delija and he is now in PFL playoff final for a chance to win $1 million dollars in next fight against Matheus Scheffel in heavyweight category.
MMA legend Mirko Crocop was back in the octagon after fight finished because he is important part of Delija team preparation.
You must watch this eight minute fight Ante Delija vs Renan Ferreira from last weekend:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qldssMOzvU

New PFL 8 Playoff event just started with some great fights and I would suggest watchinhg heavyweight clash Ante Delija vs Renan Ferreira that is starting soon.
This is nice warmup for tomorrow UFC event and they have motivation to win one million dollars in this playoffs.
I didn't watch Vojto Barborík or Maxim Radu so far but this looks like interesting featherweight fight and they have good mma records.

Dana White announced new UFC contract winners for last Contender Series Week 3 and he signed three contracts to Clayton Carpenter, Erik Silva and Jamal Pogues.
I expected he would sign one heavyweight dude and I was right, that was Jamal Pogues, and for main event Dana liked Bo Nickal but decided to give him one more chance in next Contender Series.

Very interesting event Bellator 284 Gracie vs Yamauchi is coming in few days.
Rest of the card doesn't have some exciting names, but I think co-main event Moldavsky vs Mowry could be good heavyweight clash.

Third week of Dana White Contender Series is scheduled for tomorrow with five new matches.
Most interesting part is that face-offs was very intense and explosive between two girls Lavado and Wojcik that almost started a fight.
I want to see co-main event between two big heavyweight dudes with good MMA record Paulo Renato (10-1) and Jamal Pogues (8-3).
Face-offs video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfmJktpmZHw

Dana White was really really happy you can see it in his eyes and reaction that he was very delighted with the fighters in the contender series, he was really standing with delight in what is happening, and it was really a great event in my opinion this Contender series really hit the 2nd trending Worldwide just like Dana White have been saying and Billy Goff was given by Dana White a standing ovation when he turns the table on his opponent, And Waldo Cortes-Acosta was now the active fighter in the Dominican Republic, Francis Marshall, Vinicius Salvador, and Chris Duncan, they all really did a great job and Dana White really love their performance to be given a contract in the UFC,

---

I got to add this to my post because I was really moved by what happened to this fight, and if you all watch or know the ONE Championship and what happens to the fight and because it was a fight on January 14, 2022, when Xiong Jing Nan was now pulling his punches on her opponent Ayaka Miura that control on her self when her opponent can not fight anymore and the concern for Miura was really tremendous she even asks the referee to help her, I haven't seen the fight back then because I was not really familiar with ONE Championship, but that remarkable and unthinkable concern over her opponent was really something so it really deserves a respect,

Dana White just signed five new fighters with UFC contracts after Contender Series second week, and he was in better mood than last week.
New UFC fighters are Billy Goff, Waldo Cortes-Acosta, Francis Marshall, Vinicius Salvador and Chris Duncan.

Moving to the new event coming soon is PFL 7 Playoffs with mix of famous fighters like Anthony Pettis and some unknowns in main event.
This is second fight between Stevie Ray and Anthony Pettis and last time this year Stevie Ray was better.
Nice warmup for this weekend UFC event.

Contender Series second week matches are starting in few hours with five new matches, but they need to perform much better than last week.
Dana White was angry and pissed, giving only one fighter contract with UFC, so I am expecting to see more raw power.
Good thing is to see two heavyweight fighters on this card but other matches look promising.

Short preview of fighters in this card is available on youtube:
