Chatri Sityodtong opens up on the difference between ONE Championship and UFC

ONE Championship Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong is one of the most driven individuals anyone can come across in their lifetime. His passion for combat sports emerged when he shared the difference between ONE and the UFC in a recent Sky Sports interview.

He said:

"The UFC's focused on MMA, we're focused on all martial arts, all the different disciplines. But the best of the best on the planet, whether it's striking, grappling, or mixed martial arts."

He continued:

"We focus on the ethos of martial arts. I'm a lifelong martial artist as the founder. I've been doing Muay Thai for almost 40 years and Brazilian jiu-jitsu for 14 years or so and I want to represent real, authentic martial arts from the home of martial arts here in Asia."
