News ONE Championship raises another 150 million

No but legit someone please explain how ONE FC turns a profit!?

-They stream all of their cards on YouTube for free.

-Upload all their fights online for free archived on YouTube.

-Give out free tickets all the time.

-Have to pay their fighters.

-Have to pay for production and media.

-Don’t do PPV’s.

So how the fuck are they making so much money!!!

They don't make money, read Bloody Elbows financial review stories on ONE FC. ShowMoney podcast through Bloody Elbow talks about from time to time. They increase revenue they lose even more money, year after year.

Chatri treats ONE like a youtuber trying to create a successful you tube channel. It's just they haven't found a way to make money yet and may never. I don't think that system will ever produce enough revenue to make ONE profitable.

ONE has been burning about 70 Million a year the last three years. Does anyone feel that ONE has ever produced a product that you can see how they spent 70 Million that year to produce??? Personally, I have a hard time believing the product we been seeing even cost 20 Million a year to produce.
 
investors must really believe his UFC of the east bullshit. Dont know why anyone would dump money into that org.
If they get a return on investment, great. If not, they write it off.
 
IF One is smart here they could do a grand Prix were the winner gets 10m$
It would be pretty amazing if they did 10 million dollar tournaments. Every guy not signed by the UFC would be trying to get in and probably a bunch of UFC guys would be begging to get released so they could fight in it. There is a ton of money in Asia. Just look at the housing market here in the US. Wealthy Chinese buy up houses like crazy. Then they leave the houses vacant. It must be nice to have so much money you don't know what to do with it.

They buy the homes since it's all Chinese businessmen who are trying to tie their money in offshore venues that the CCP can't touch if they ever get caught. Many off these people are committing financial crimes in China and know it.

Chatri is a genius? Con-man selling but can he sell One to Thailand and S. Korea? Doubtful but I have hope.

What is so strange about this latest investment is losses have been increasing and revenue has been staying the same. At least with some these tech companies they might have losses but revenue is increasing and at least things are going in the right direction.
I personally think chatri is giving backhanders to these investment companies raising money for him. Not the client investing the money. But the guy advising him in the investment companies.

Ads cost money.
 
Cost of journalist to write crazy hype... Delusional articles.
 
Long read:

I don't think most sherdoggers understand what money laundering actually is. I'm not going to explain it but as a former IB with Morgan Stanley I'll tell to you what's actually happening.

What events like the PFL and One FC look for is people (investors) that have extremely high yearly earnings and face high tax burdens.

The PFL for instance gets a lot of its money from Hollywood types. People that earn $100m+ a year.

These high earners reduce their tax burdens by putting money into speculative investments (like PFL or Glory) rather then just giving it to the government. Notice how they always secure funding in December at the end of the fiscal year...

Better to own 3% of the PFL which may take off down the road then give money to the IRS and recieve nothing in return.

I'm not wealthy on that level but have worked with people that are. What we regular people see as investors throwing $150m away isn't people thinking this is a great opportunity to earn money, it's the uber wealthy reducing their tax burden/gambling on the small chance of an upside.

Plus these rich people fly in to events with friends and family, sit cage side, have lobster buffets in private rooms at arenas and are granted access to the fighters etc...

When you make $100m a year spending $10m that you would have given to the IRS to get front row seats and VIP treatment for friends and family at a major sporting event is a no brainer. Plus you're meeting other movers and shakers in global business.

These people are now many and how do you keep them away from your business? Too many cooks in the kitchen..

What promises did he make.. when he cannot keep the promises this will become just a bunch of law suits..

Just a private club then.

That's not how investments work. All investments carry risk. start up models like ONE Championship carry heavy risk. No ROI is guaranteed.

kinda, not really. if it was closer to a 1:1 ratio, sure. but it's basically a .5:1 ratio at worst.

you do tax loss harvesting at end of year, not make new investments that won't likely amount to shit just to maybe have a lesser tax burden due to offsets in a later year. these aren't donations, at least in terms of taxes.

if they do nothing, they pay 50% at worst in the highest tax bracket before losses. dumping money into what seems to be a guaranteed loss isn't a good way to save money.

How much % do you think Chatri takes on that?

Chatri is funny, i mean.who leaves Wall street with great income for this shady business?
 
ONE's main goal was to promote "values of integrity, humility, honor, respect, courage, discipline, and compassion?
With all this dirty moving money to pay yourself and shady judging think One already failed.

I was speaking in more general terms than anything. I used to work for 2 of the events that I mentioned and know this is exactly what they they do. I didn't mean to come off like investor motives are 100% financially inclined because there is some "cool factor" involved with telling friends and family you own fight promotion. At different points over the past few years I've considered going public with what the two events I worked for were actually doing behind the scenes financially (while I was there) but they paid the fighters well (many of whom I'm friends with) and I didn't want to rock the boat.
 
Pretty sure Pride was making money at least until they lost their TV deals.

Pride was laundering money for Japanese organized crime by paying the fighters card cash while earning legit income through their SkyTV deal.

I would start by looking into the ownership of the sub contractors they hire to run the shows. Who owns the hotels the event staff stays at, who owns the production company, who owns the travel agency that does the booking, who owns every business that Chatri writes a check to in order the run the show. That's where I would start...

These investors have no control over the business. Glory has been doing it for over a decade. I worked for several shows through multiple rounds of investors. One of the investors used to bring his entire extended family to events like 30+ men, women and children to show off his investment. I used to feel really badly because I'd see his smile get smaller and smaller event after event when he started to realize it was a bad investment. But the guy also owned a wellknown professional sports franchise in the US and a Casino. What he lost would take me around 10 years to earn, lol.
