PBP ONE 163: Akimoto vs. Petchtanong, Sat. 11/19, 6:30 AM ET/3:30 AM PT PBP Discussion Thread

[PurpleStorm]

Thanks for the descriptions gio et. al. ONE delivered again this weekend.

I've been mentioning to everyone to watch the main & co-main of last night's card too. Rodtang to see a complete fighter. The welterweight title fight to see a war and an incredible comeback.

I missed this!

Fekker used a Chicken-Wing!

Crazy, him and Shinya only has 4 pound difference in the stats, but they look a weight class apart.

He was always a welterweight before ONE.
