Damn, that was one hell of a fight, I never saw that ending coming. Well fought to both of them, I hope you guys heal up really well. That takes a real toll on the body for both of them!
@@louloup4607 le picked his shots well and that one landed right on the chin. nothing casual about it. nguyen should've came with a better game plan than just try to head hunt, especially when the opponent is this wily
Coaches are there for a reason... right before the knockout they're literally screaming to stay composed and dont get sloppy... Over extends with unguarded chin and gets clipped. Hats of to #3 for catching the error for the win, amazing fight
Been watching Martin fighting for 3-4 years, I realised when he loses it always when constantly dropping his hands when underestimated his range between him and his opponents or lower his hands when he's throwing power shots
I remember Thanh Le was awesome on Ultimate Fighter(Mcgregor vs Fabre). He was so impressive I thought he would win it. Glad to see he continued fighting.
you can hear martins coach (sounds like henri hooft) yell " dont get sloppy martin" just before he gets clipped. he underestimated his opponent and paid the price
Something about the production on this fight-- you can feel everything more, as a viewer. Maybe it's the general quiet in the arena. Nasty one. Good show.
Le looked better the whole fight. First two rounds he was really giving Nguyen the hard time with his movement. He gassed out in the third though, but at this point Nguyen looked a bit worn down too - from all the counters of Le.
Nguyen would cut off the cage and have le backing up but do nothing with it. He wasn’t throwing anything that would help find his range in the first round. just walking him down and letting le take the first shot every time
@@duelworldmax9584 Exactly. I think we should credit Le for his constant feints and fast counters as well as very active footwork. Nguyen just couldn’t match his rhythm.
@@pninnan i know! if only le just gave him a chance, huh? nguyen looked stumped the whole time - he couldn't do anything while le danced around him, creating angles and opportunities for himself
Le out maneuvered & out kicked Nguyen in the 1st 2 rounds then when Martin Nguyen upped his punches his guard was left unprotected. Stunning win for Thanh Le in the 3rd round !
despite le doing a lot better fighting and maneuvering, i can almost guarantee that nguyen would've been handed the W if le didn't win in such decisive fashion. one championship has awful judging haha
i love how the commentators always gave credits to Nguyen but not enough to Le. and just before Le connected the punch, the commentator said "he canmot stop moving u need to keep going!"... then BOOM counter right cross from Le
I love when the announcers spend the entire fight openly biased in favor of the loser. That's even more fun to watch than when cocky fighters get dropped.
one thing i hate about combat sport commentators and analyst is that whenever they love a particular fighter, in respective of the situations, they always want talk him or her over the opponents even when it's clear that their favorite is taken a serious beating, they'll still prefer to make references to them as if they are unbeatable.
Champ got sloppy moving frwd and caught with a hard crisp shot on the chin, the quick follow up with clean shots were a nice finish for the win.. it ain't over til it's over!
No low kicks to slow the other guy down. Just letting him hit and run. Le knows he have the range so he using that to his advantage. Nguyen should take advantage and keep kicking his legs but he doesn't. Just want to play punching game. His legs are his range moves and he doesn't fully utilize it.
Yeah agreed. Even in the 3rd nothing was really landing flush. It looked like he was moving with the blows or had a block up every time the losing fighter threw some serious.
If Thanh Le was dynamic like this in the fight vs. Tang Kai ayear later, the result might have been different. Final Championship contests are always astoundingly impressive. Great fights by all fighters.
Just when i thought Nguyen was going to knock out Le.....Le catches him coming in for the kill. Great fight fellas. I am sure both of these fighters know this could have gone either way. What a battle. Did you see Le's face as he walked away from the ref declaring it was over? ..absolute exhaustion.
The problem matching 2 counter-punchers is there is far less action than there is with a fighter with a forward pressure style matched with a counter-puncher 👍🏻
Hilarious commentary. Are these guys actually getting paid ? It’s like they are watching something completely different. 😂 They go on and on about Martin as Le smacks him around without a mention. Then - “Martin has the key” 😂
You won’t ever see Joe Rogan or DC not admit his favorite fighter is getting their ahh whooped, these commentators must have posters of Nguyen on there walls at home
Agreed, I’m no fighter but I would think a respectful acknowledgement such as a nod of the head would have a better impact on the fighter then pretending it wasn’t a good strike from their opponent.
he seemed more disappointed with himself for getting hit than trying to seem like he's shrugging it off. that commentator was just talking out his rear end
There’s always someone better. Those commentators ate their own words.
Thanh Lee proved he's the better Vietnamese man - Broke Nguyen's face and damaged his brain
@@stanwilson7040 that he did.
One can be better in the morning, or on a tuesday, then worse at some other time. Performance change with time based on variety of factors.
@dennis No I'm saying that there is always a better fighter,not just on the day but overall.
one commentators can't hide their bias lol they seem to lack perspective and drink their own koolaid
Very rare to have two vietnamese fighting at an elite level on a big promotion.. super proud of these guys 🙌
One is Australian lols
Good lessen for the commentators who were biased towards the champion. You never judge a book by it's cover👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Yes they're idiot's
Had to laugh at the bias commentating,then comment 'it's the Nguyen show' then he promptly gets the snot beat out of him.
in fairness, it was all Nguyen in that third round, right up until it wasn't....
Congratulations for both fighters for a great fight! Nothing but respect to Martin. Kudos to Le the new champ! Hoping for a Trilogy!
This was back in 2020, Tang Kai is the Featherweight champ now. Thanh Le had a good run tho
Any given Sunday. Thank you to both warriors for the hard fought battle, very entertaining, especially as a long time MMA fan.
"its the Nguyen show!" seconds later he's knocked out😂😂😂
Exactly. Obvious bias towards the champion.
They both good strikers, Martin looks more complete but little bit loose in defending. So he was knocked out.
I caught that too...classic! I bet that commentator felt like a jackass moments later,....eeee haw eeee haw 🤣
Damn, that was one hell of a fight, I never saw that ending coming. Well fought to both of them, I hope you guys heal up really well. That takes a real toll on the body for both of them!
Le did very well. Good evasive movements, good distance. Good timing. All around, a well-fought match for Le.
devastating casual right hand.. nice !
@@louloup4607 le picked his shots well and that one landed right on the chin. nothing casual about it. nguyen should've came with a better game plan than just try to head hunt, especially when the opponent is this wily
I see similarities to wonder boy thompsons style, evasive tae kwon do.
@@cloudsmith7803 I see a little Dominic Cruz there too
@@kautsarmw9526 ah yeah, I think he uses that dart punch also
Coaches are there for a reason... right before the knockout they're literally screaming to stay composed and dont get sloppy... Over extends with unguarded chin and gets clipped. Hats of to #3 for catching the error for the win, amazing fight
That was a good fight - thought it was going to be a kick that ended it. Respect to both guys.
This was the first ONE event I ever watched, haven’t missed a single one since.
Me to , it was an amazing fight, the sound of those punches 😵😵😵
That was an amazing technical fight. That was a real show of talent right there for both.
Dancing all the 3 rounds while stricking. Just amazing
So satisfying to watch a guy like Nguyen get beat on. He stopped the cocky head shaking real quick
He stopped shaking his head at the end.
Wrong. He got his head shook for him.
Commentators were so biased
I’ve noticed ONE to be heavily bias towards their stars or heavy favorites
“Nice défense on the roundhouse head kick” that fully connected with the Australian’s temple.
"Marty's turned it on in this 3rd round"; "It's the Nguyen show" *gets tagged and knocked out😂
Hehe. This is common. Nguyen was certainly looking good till he was not
Yea that was pretty bad commentary. Very bias
Been watching Martin fighting for 3-4 years, I realised when he loses it always when constantly dropping his hands when underestimated his range between him and his opponents or lower his hands when he's throwing power shots
Maybe you should be fighting instead of him...
@@chrisbrady6687 he’s right tho
He spent so long chasing Le that he was just constantly loading up but not finding the chance to throw. Just ended up wading in with his hand down
@@chrisbrady6687or you
did you see how close he put his face near Thanh's right hand? dropping guard that moment fked him up what was he thinking lol?
I remember watching lee fight in TUF, he was impressive there. It’s good to see how he’s making a name for himself in ONE.
I remember Thanh Le was awesome on Ultimate Fighter(Mcgregor vs Fabre). He was so impressive I thought he would win it. Glad to see he continued fighting.
you can hear martins coach (sounds like henri hooft) yell " dont get sloppy martin" just before he gets clipped. he underestimated his opponent and paid the price
he was worn down... physically and mentally. he didn't know what to do the whole fight
Something about the production on this fight-- you can feel everything more, as a viewer. Maybe it's the general quiet in the arena. Nasty one. Good show.
Announcers weren't biased in favor of Nguyen at all.
“It’s the Nguyen show!” 😂😂🤣🤣 AND THENNNNN 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Why they saying a shocking upset? The guy who beat the Champ was ranked number 3 in the whole One Fighting league lol
Got that Max Holloway style 👌🏻💪🏻
Was thinking the same thing. Great fight. Le was focused in his flow.
Yeah, definitely similarities there.
Calling Le underdog is really an understatement 😅
“It’s the nguyen show in the 3rd round” 😅😅😅 those commentators are funny 😅😅😅
I love Marthin Nguyen 🎉❤❤❤
Le movement reminds me of Dominick Cruz. Will be fun to follow in the future!
Nailed it! I was thinking the same thing
Unbelievable fight, great video, great announcing glad I didn’t have to watch all the breakages thank you
commentators are the best... "he's been tagged more than a graffiti artist" , "marty has turned it on" , lotmorebollox , then epic fail xD
Such a beautiful, high level fight.
Le looked better the whole fight. First two rounds he was really giving Nguyen the hard time with his movement. He gassed out in the third though, but at this point Nguyen looked a bit worn down too - from all the counters of Le.

@@duelworldmax9584 Exactly. I think we should credit Le for his constant feints and fast counters as well as very active footwork. Nguyen just couldn’t match his rhythm.
Nguyen just couldn’t pull the trigger, never had an opportunity to land anything
Nguyen got to comfortable throwing his right hook, he was spamming it leaving him wide open. Even a amateur would have seen that opening.
@@pninnan i know! if only le just gave him a chance, huh? nguyen looked stumped the whole time - he couldn't do anything while le danced around him, creating angles and opportunities for himself
Very satisfying video lol ... Finally someone that got actual skills to beat that Nguyen guy
“Nguyen’s turning it up right now..” “martin..” “nguyen..” then gets K.Oed
Commentators: “Nguyen’s is using his ‘getting knocked tf out’ technique” 💪🏼
I mean.. he was turning it up and he tagged Le a couple times pretty good. I counted 7-8 clean shots.
Le landed a beautiful counter though
I love it when the commentators make a fool of themselves !
Two Vietnamese punchers .respect ❤❤❤
It's always interesting to see an underdog vs a world champion. You never know which way it might go
Dude there is always an underdog 😂
You just described professional fighting
Lmao Le is former champion too
Le out maneuvered & out kicked Nguyen in the 1st 2 rounds then when Martin Nguyen upped his punches his guard was left unprotected. Stunning win for Thanh Le in the 3rd round !
despite le doing a lot better fighting and maneuvering, i can almost guarantee that nguyen would've been handed the W if le didn't win in such decisive fashion. one championship has awful judging haha
The coach just said “don’t get sloppy Martin” before he got caught with that right hand
le is so patient, his timming is good
Well done, Thanh. From a Brit. RESPECT.
Beautiful ending. Respect!
Whenever they shake their head no, you know they connected. Too much pride.
Lee won every round. Martin got frustrated in the final round and decided to try for a knockout.
He got one.
bull
That was a great fight!!
Le is a monster!! Those were only flyweights!! Wow!!! Huge power!!
Featherweight
@@leokrisianpinca8673
Whoops!! Glad you corrected!!
i love how the commentators always gave credits to Nguyen but not enough to Le. and just before Le connected the punch, the commentator said "he canmot stop moving u need to keep going!"... then BOOM counter right cross from Le
@11:03 He got tagged more than a graffiti artist 😂
Yeah.....that Ozzy commentator is a complete tool.
I love when the announcers spend the entire fight openly biased in favor of the loser.
That's even more fun to watch than when cocky fighters get dropped.
If Max Holoway was born in another Country.
What a good fight. Warriors
Great fight plan for Lee 👏🏽
Great fight!!
This fight I would call the punishment of the presumptuous.
After watching the video, I come to the comments to hear what all the experts think !
'he's been tagged more than a graffiti artist' lol
one thing i hate about combat sport commentators and analyst is that whenever they love a particular fighter, in respective of the situations, they always want talk him or her over the opponents even when it's clear that their favorite is taken a serious beating, they'll still prefer to make references to them as if they are unbeatable.
Good for the both of them.
They needed what they got.
Never thought a top 3 contender would now be called an “underdog. 🫠
Love it when the commentators think they have it all figured out ahead of time.
"The Nguyen show!......... " lol
good job Than Le 👏👏👏👏
Amazing fight 💪
Que peleoooon!!! estos 2 son de otro planeta
that sneaky right hook turned the situations
Ending was intense AF!!!
that was brutal at the end i loved it
Wow good fight 💪
Champ got sloppy moving frwd and caught with a hard crisp shot on the chin, the quick follow up with clean shots were a nice finish for the win.. it ain't over til it's over!
Ref felt those last couple seconds damn that fight was hectic
Both 💯💯💥💥
No low kicks to slow the other guy down. Just letting him hit and run. Le knows he have the range so he using that to his advantage. Nguyen should take advantage and keep kicking his legs but he doesn't. Just want to play punching game. His legs are his range moves and he doesn't fully utilize it.
Nguyen threw several hard leg kicks that landed but not enough for sure. Dude was hunting for that overhand right KO shot.
a talented fighter for sure, but nguyen had no strategy.... he looked stumped most of the time, hoping for a counter
Damn that went hard af.
Funny how the announcers had their favorite and were talking the entire time about how they could not wait for Martin to "unleash" his power
Yeah agreed. Even in the 3rd nothing was really landing flush. It looked like he was moving with the blows or had a block up every time the losing fighter threw some serious.
Yeah, I'd notice those bias comments of the commentators favouring Nguyen.😁
He rocked him a few times...that's the power
Those are actually satisfying punches at the end lol
His chin walked right into that jab
If Thanh Le was dynamic like this in the fight vs. Tang Kai ayear later, the result might have been different. Final Championship contests are always astoundingly impressive. Great fights by all fighters.
Great strategy, well executed. For the win. Discipline.
The commentator was like he needs keep moving and going forward at that moment, gets cracked
Perfect strategy 👏
Martin got tired Le is very evasive and precise..Nevertheless it was a good match!
Just when i thought Nguyen was going to knock out Le.....Le catches him coming in for the kill. Great fight fellas. I am sure both of these fighters know this could have gone either way. What a battle. Did you see Le's face as he walked away from the ref declaring it was over? ..absolute exhaustion.
Le is never getting ko'd
Damn go fight. Evenly matched
le received several heavy overhead punches but nothing happened. In the end, nguyen received a mild punch and was stunned and knocked out.
ONE IS THE BEST!
beast mode activated!!!!!
The problem matching 2 counter-punchers is there is far less action than there is with a fighter with a forward pressure style matched with a counter-puncher 👍🏻

Great fight congratulations
What a counter punch!
It ain’t over till it’s over. He walked into one.
The Play by play guy was Nguyens biggest fan!
Martin might as well get pockets on his shorts to rest his hands in...they already so low
We shocked the world...
then the world was in shock!
Being pretentious is a bad thing !!
Good job Le !! 👏✊✊
Timing is everything
Round and round they're going circle😂
You won’t ever see Joe Rogan or DC not admit his favorite fighter is getting their ahh whooped, these commentators must have posters of Nguyen on there walls at home
Getting hit then shaking your head your not hurt isn’t defensive at all!
Agreed, I’m no fighter but I would think a respectful acknowledgement such as a nod of the head would have a better impact on the fighter then pretending it wasn’t a good strike from their opponent.
@@dogedave3188 .
Mmmmm
Just meant that he didn't want that to happened but the shot got through
he seemed more disappointed with himself for getting hit than trying to seem like he's shrugging it off. that commentator was just talking out his rear end
Le is nice with it. Moves very well.
