The story of both the Ondash brothers is kind of interesting. They are supporting each other hoping to become the first lebanese One contracted fighter iirc. Both fought last friday night, and both were entertaining fights (although you probably knew that already).
I watched this live, The footage of him 7 years ago was sweet, when I heard Ondash, I got my popcorn. I knew it was a great fight. Excited to get your reaction. Kongchai was a perfect opponent for Ondash, he was challenged and showcased. One FC knows what they got with Ondash , great to see them match the details to the talent
@@F82_ I suspect he could hold that pace for 5 rounds no problem if uninjured - he's been training that sport since near birth, in Thailand, and all fights there are 5 rounds.
@jamesleigh6166 he no doubt trains the complete Muay Thai skillset but has chosen to be a Muay Mat (boxer style specialist). This makes sense especially against seasoned Thais who have an ultra high level kicking game but, typically, weaker punch defense.
It's nice to see the discipline he's developed with his boxing. He's still slick, even fighting in the pocket he rarely got touched, but he hand's are staying up now.
After watching a lot of thai fighters, I learnt to never count them out. They almost always come back in the later rounds. So much grit and determination
Ondash looked spectacular out there. I'm more than a little sad that many thai fighters fail to adjust to the reality of a 3-round fight. You have to come out giving 100% from round 1 if you want to have the option of winning on points. I'm in agreement with Gabriel - if this was a 5-rounder, Kongchai would have won. But it wasn't, and Ondash fought the vastly better 2 out of 3 rounds.
its because of the way this organization scores fights. usually they reward spamming the body kick because eventually the guard will break, in round 3 Ondash almost gave up too. You'll see some pretty upsetting scorecards in ONE
Wish Ondash well and see great potential. One to watch. Nice 3rd round adjustment. Wanted more rounds. Great analysis. Love the insight of fighting from your content.
I don’t know what fight you guys were watching but the kid with only 10 fights, beat the guy who had over 70 fights. I also didn’t see the kid with only 10 fights look like giving up because of anything, let alone kicks. Why would he want to give up when he had 2 rounds in the bag, plus a knockdown. Fighters don’t give up when they’re winning 🙄
A little off topic here, I would just like you guys insights. I blocked a hard bodykick and my arms, i now know the angle i used was wrong and my forearm hurts. Bones arent broken (i know this because there’s just a slight swelling but no bruising) howver movement is uncomfortable, i assume ligaments were strained, have you had any experience with this? What can i expect/do? Right now im icing etc,
Slight swelling and no bruising can still be a broken arm, it could be just a greenstick fracture for example. I hope for you its that, because ligment tears are much more of a pain to deal with. The ligments have comparatively little blood flow, and thus take a long ass time to repair, and for older people often don't repair well at all. Personally I had a partial ligment tear in my ankle during running a year ago, and I literally could not put any weight on it for a week. It took about 4 months before it was back in decent condition where I wasn't hindered in doing things, and about a whole year to be fully healed back to normal (I feel blessed for it healing completely though). Still, you should just see a specialist to figure out what it is. In any case cooling to prevent swelling and rest is always a good idea.
Kongchai is a seasoned, very tough fighter that has a long creer inside ONE Friday night fights. I truly appreciate his toughness and resilience. In ONE, body kicks are scores very, very high even when they are blocked. See Nattawut vs Tawanchai, both fights, where Tawanchai would throw a kick that would get blocked, Nattawut would counter with 3+ punches and yet, listen to the commentary and see who won those fights. It’s a bit frustrating sometimes to see that kick getting so much credit but I think that’s why Kongchai kept throwing, because he knows in ONE it scores really high. Happy new year!
Please show me how One scores because i am very sure its biased and changes from person to person. The knockdown point system is also flawed i believe as we see in the 2nd round of this fight the thai throws and scores way more but loses the round because he was knocked down.
@ I fully agree that their scoring is flawed and very biased, but the power kick to the body always scores high. See any Ferrari Fairtex fight, see also both Marat vs Superbon fights… somehow the commentary and judges assume that if a good kicker lands on the Dutch guard, the arms of the opponents will break any second, even if they don’t and the opponent keeps walking forward… it’s truly frustrating sometimes
@ The commentator in one is terrible no offence to him, the Australian was far more knowledgeable and better sadly hes gone. For this fight instance I am pretty sure the guy has a broken right arm, he barely throws it after round 1. The favorability of fighters is really bad in ONE. Its not five round traditional muay Thai they need new rules, every strike should count as a single point whether its hands, kick, knee or elbow, whoever out strikes wins the round. they also need to change the knockdown rule from instantly losing the round, this rule has in a lot of bouts throw technique out the window as the knocked down opponent needs to get his own knock down. Or in the case of this fight scored for what I believe was not a round deserving win for Ondash who was out strike the whole round, and as a result he won because of this knock down (not trying to criticize his skill or him as a fighter because the outcome is not his fault). One has said in the past they like to score based on damage, yet we see in this fight the Thai walking smiling with far less damage taken then the Lebanese fighter who probably broke is right arm. We can also look John Lineker vs Kulabdam, where I believe the right decision was given, but many fans say kulabdam should lose because he was knocked down. For me it is peak fighting when someone has been knocked down and manages to rally and bring back the game, it really shows the spirit of fighting and the spirit of muay thai.
Close to classic Muay Thai scoring. Nothing weird with it unless you dislike the Muay Thai scoring system as a whole. If you want a different set of rules, that is fine. But try to convince Thai fighters that have fought 200+ fights with this system that they are wrong and you won't have much luck.
@ you are right, that’s how Muay Thai is scored and that’s the reality. What I truly dislike is when that criteria gets extrapolated to their kickboxing matches. Notice how Nattawut vs Tawanchai were one fight Muay Thai, one fight kickboxing yet one feels after watching that the body kick got a lot of credit in both fights regardless of rule set. Same goes for the Grigorian vs Superbon fights and Even the Prajanchai vs DiBella fight
IMHO, though I haven't read ONE's score book, having kicks through guard having points is still make sense. ONE uses smaller gloves which basically make a bout a KaadChueak style, where punches are more prevalent.
He’s an athletic hook’n’slug fighter with a good fade away, and he is fun to watch. But he still fights like a kid. No pacing, not using a lot of tools, depending almost entirely on his athleticism. I have a 13yo son who’s a very competitive wrestler. In the almost four years he’s been wrestling, I’ve seen him pass up a bunch of kids who looked really good comparatively in the first couple years. People develop both physically and mentally at different rates in the early years. Sometimes all you’re seeing at the younger ages is a kid who grew into his speed and strength more quickly than his peers.
For about 6 months I tried fighting with a really forward foot heavy boxing style. Worked great but those really advanced guys were smart enough to chop my front leg down and disrupt my flow. If the Thai would’ve spammed the front leg with the same force that he was spamming the rear kick… this fight would’ve been a completely different story.
Was it me or were y’all more impressed about the other young man keeping his composure and firing clean effective shots back like the jab hook on a moving target *chefs kiss*
Agree with your comment on his punches. Almost every one of them looks like he wants to break ribs or take a head off. That 2nd round miss in the beginning where he threw himself off balance couldve been very bad. Anyway, absolutely entertaining fight! I'll sit back behind my keyboard now.
You missed at 8:19 Ondash got rocked by the checkhook and dropped. He’s good but he needs to mix his speeds up because he’s all explosion. I like to soften guys up then explode
I think if this was a 5 rounds match kongchai will probably win due to ondash already almost out of gas and hurt...but knowing its a 3 rounds match he came out blazing and earned those early points
Ondash did so well in this fight, he only has one hole and it is to overswing and get off balanced and he needs to manage his cardio, he really faded in round 3, but won rounds 1 and 2 dominantly imo. After he manages that, he will be Champion 100%. Awesome fight against a really experienced opponent! 🥊🥊
Kid got spirit and good hands, I give him that. But if he want to get far in ONE he need to fight smarter. There's always someone stronger, faster, and tougher than you.
Gentleman’s agreement : you are free to crush limbs, but once you get known as that guy, people won’t support you because that’s too much, other fighters will avoid you and the ones that don’t will wanna become the guy who busted up the limb of that guy who goes around busting limbs. Basically: there is a whole lot less to gain from being overly brutal.
@@mox6478 What about just elbowing their leg? I trained Muay Thai but never competed (competed a lot in other arts), and didn't commit all finer points of the rules to memory because I never intended to compete.
I don’t know what you’re seeing but the Thai guy dominated from 2nd onwards, those kicks were working from the start. great game plan against a brawler like Ondash, shut his boxing down completely.
I began following him when he was a child, but when he fought in ONE, I started to dislike him. He acted as if he had never learned Muay Thai before, especially during the face-off with his opponent and his in-ring style.
One championship is my favourite fight organization but i don't know how long it will last because it haemorrhages money at every event i hope it doesn't go the way all the other failed fighting orgonizations in the east end up...
Kongchai clearly won the fight. Ondash clipped him down with the left hook, but it wasn’t a critical damage due to Ondash bladed stance at the time. Kongchai came back after that proves my point. I believe Thai judges at RWS does way better job that the international judges in ONE. That Friday night, they let Thai won for where non-Thai opponents should have won, and vice versa for Ondash case. Ondash’s skill was disappointment, but he’s young so he has more time be versatile fighter.
@@BigJohnson-g3j Actually he was catching almost all of the kicks, the thai fighter certainly was not kicking him at will. Also, every single comment you make just showcases your lack of knowledge of muay thai, if you don't practice a sport don't act like you're the expert.
Thais tend to go easy on the first round to read their opponents and often lose in the scoring but they have 4 more rounds to compensate it. However, this approach is not really practical in ONE because there’s only 3 rounds to work with and they are not exactly known to be KO artists with their boxing as their style is more based on breaking down opponents with body kicks and win by overall damage after 5 rounds. Kongchai would have won if the first round is a tie. Round 2 and 3 cancelled out each other so for this fight, Round 1 actually became the crucial deciding factor on who won the fight, which is Ondash. (10-9, 10-8, 8-10)
Too dependent on one technique. For all of that boxing flash he displayed in the previous vid, he spammed the body kick and didn’t evade the counters. Evasive boxing with bob n weave works when sparring boxing, not so much when opponents are throwing knees.
Oh my god Gabriel, you are actually impressed by this wannabe boxer? He doesn't show any proper boxing footwork or any boxing techniques, he's just a Muay Thai brawler.
I'll break it down. First, prodigies don't mean anything in fighting as it is not like other sports. The human body tends to have a limit and plateau...as well as IQs not fully realized. Those who grew up fighting in the gym will fight in a trained manner. Predictable, framed, and follow a standard. Ondash is a mediocre fighter. His strengths are the left hook and left jab. Poor accuracy, generates too much power, poor fight IQ, limited skill sets, has no killer instinct, cannot flow, bad cardio due to muscles and generating too much power, lacks a kicking game, lacks understanding of basic MT like proper stance and clinch work. He seems to like to catch the kicks and throw the left, which doesn't work bc he's too wide and not in range. He should learn to adjust like evade some, counter by pulling, sweeping and knee, etc. Basically, he has MMA stance....and he throws like MMA. He needs to learn how to save energy by throwing properly. He needs to not catch all the kicks as it drains his energy in addition to expending energy on punching and being bulky. He tries to box in a MT fight and his boxing is bad. That's his problem. Uses mainly hooks and jabs on one side with windup. Easy to evade and defeat. Evasion skills are subpar. At this rate, he'll never be a Champ in an elite organization such as One or any of the two prestigious stadiums. His awareness of situation is bad, not knowing what to do. You grow up in a gym, you'll fight like a gym fighter. He needs to train against different styles. Prime example of what not to do in a fight. He's thinking like every MT fighter where it is a test of will and stamina. Too rigid to be good. The greatest fighters don't really use muscle or power. For example, Saenchai. You have to move fast and learn proper mechanics and always be aware. Bruce Lee said be like water. This means power is defeated by relaxation and not forcing it or using power. Kid has a long way to go.
Boxing + Muay Thai yuck, but then again I am not a fan of Muay Thai. I don't think the kid is special, he's just a Muay Thai brawler. He doesn't have good head movement, defensive techniques, or even good footwork.
hes pretty low level. i dont see anything impressive at all. child prodigys usually grow up and lose because the amount of inflated confidence and bad habits they have. he looks like any other muay thai fighter nothing
Why would he train a very different sport train a skill that is part of muay thai? Terrible advice that showcases your complete utter lack of knowledge on the subject.

He started out great but couldn't maintain the pace and damage. Once he settles down the youthful recklessness he'll be a wrecking ball.
He couldn't maintain the pace because he was damaged badly in the ribs and arm. Those kicks were baht in the Thai bank 🤑🤑🤑🫰
@@MikeD-hn9hfthat plus you could tell he was gassed out from going 100 since round one, he wanted a ko that’s why he was going hard

Really wanted Kongchai to win that. Sad to see
man pleasee let me have those figth gloves i wanna wanna show them to my coachh.

Old school Dempsey/Tyson pressure style boxing vs traditional muay thai
Kong chai got some tea later 😆
Looked like Ondash broke his right hand, only right elbow used in r3.
Could be. Thqt happens somewhat frequently in 4 oz gloves if you swing everything with wreckless power like he was doing.
2 many liver kicks taken in 1st rnd
He relies on his punches way too much if he used his kicks to set up his punches he would have more success. Better suited to boxing maybe 🤔
You cannot fight Muay Thai with boxer head movement
cant not root for a fighter from Lebanon

At this rate, he'll never be a Champ in an elite organization such as One or any of the two prestigious stadiums. His awareness of situation is bad, not knowing what to do. You grow up in a gym, you'll fight like a gym fighter. He needs to train against different styles. Prime example of what not to do in a fight. He's thinking like every MT fighter where it is a test of will and stamina. Too rigid to be good. The greatest fighters don't really use muscle or power. For example, Saenchai. You have to move fast and learn proper mechanics and always be aware. Bruce Lee said be like water. This means power is defeated by relaxation and not forcing it or using power. Kid has a long way to go.
ONDASH, sounds like crypto.

Boxing + Muay Thai yuck, but then again I am not a fan of Muay Thai. I don't think the kid is special, he's just a Muay Thai brawler. He doesn't have good head movement, defensive techniques, or even good footwork.
He lost that fight. He definitely aint sleep on his right side for months lol
hes pretty low level. i dont see anything impressive at all. child prodigys usually grow up and lose because the amount of inflated confidence and bad habits they have. he looks like any other muay thai fighter nothing

Ondash doesn't kick enough, relies too much on punches.
These kids are too young for concussions
Not good. Very few tools in his tool box.
Ondash needs to low kick the the standing leg then dump his opponent. He should train grappling to facilitate this.
Why would he train a very different sport train a skill that is part of muay thai? Terrible advice that showcases your complete utter lack of knowledge on the subject.
Jesus pls give the mouth a break
But you are knowledgeable you insight is brilliant. But sometimes just like to watch in peace
First here... As usual
In a 5 round traditional Muay Thai fight Kongchai wins. Probably a stoppage with a broken arm with those kicks.
