ONE FC Fight Card and Betting Odds: Folayang, Gracie, and Moreira Favored
ONE FC's debut event is this weekend, and with the absence of notable live Japanese MMA events being broadcast, this card would be something that the BE Night Crew could look forward to... Although it will start at around 7am ET, so we might have to change it to the BE Breakfast Crew, and unless you're Matt Roth, you're probably going to have to settle on getting drunk with pancakes and maple syrup instead.
Anyway, getting back to the point, here are the betting odds that have just been released for the main card:
A Sol Kwon (+290) vs. Eduard Folayang (-350)
Phil Baroni (+120) vs. Yoshiyuki Yoshida (-125)
Mitch Chilson (-110) vs. Eric Kelly (-120)
Gregor Gracie (-750) vs. Seok Mo Kim (+450)
Andy Wang (+300) vs. Zorobabel Moreira (-500)
I've always felt that 'Zoro', and especially Gracie, who will be facing a late replacement, were going to be huge favorites going in. Baroni vs. Yoshida and Chilson vs. Kelly are really close bouts that could go either way, so there's not much of a surprise with how these lines were set up.
The only noticeable betting line given would probably be on the headliner. Folayang being as high as -350 is probably because Kwon is stepping in on relatively late notice, and that he's much more of an unknown to most people.
I can guarantee that this bout will be much closer than what the odds suggest though. Kwon is an experienced veteran who has decent wrestling, and a very dangerous stand up game. He's used to fighting multiple times and on short notice, and he definitely has a bigger chance of pulling off the upset than what these odds portay.

Here's the rest of the preliminary card:
Radeem Rahman vs. Susovan Ghosh
Soo Chul Kim vs. Leandro Issa
Vuyisile Colossa vs. Ma Xing Yu
Daniel Mashamaite vs. Yodsanan Sityodtong
Eddie Ng vs. Yuan Chun Bo

I really hope Andy takes him down. “Take him down, Andy!”

Pretty sure Yoshiyuki Yoshida is a UFC vet too. He’s got a glass jaw but good grappling. Either he’s going to throw Baroni and submit him like he did The War Machine or Baroni is going to KO him
and Folayang is also a URCC champion.
(which means much more than the Martial Combat super-fight title, IMO)… just so we’re clear, those photos and credentials were from OneFC’s official site, I didn’t make that.

Is this being broadcast anywhere? I’d really like to see this show, but I didn’t see anything on their site about a stream or airing on HDNET or anything.
Nice.
Given the fact that I haven’t slept in three weeks due to teeth infections, being up at four AM for this will be no trouble at all~!
Sorry to hear that, brother. Yes, maybe some soccerkicks and headstomps will have you feeling a bit better.

Not that it even matters
the pro elite stream was barely watchable. I hope somebody else picks up OneFC after this event.
That's not fair!
Everytime Sherdog has live fights, their stream constantly stops and the action skips forward. It’s infuriating!
Will there be a live thread for this?
I would like a live thread for this. It’s going down in the afternoon for me, so barring any real-life happenings, I’ll definitely be watching.
Yeah.
If no one can liveblog (which I doubt), there will be a live results and discussion thread up at the very least. :)

a victory from folayang
will be big here in the ph! whens tuf philippines starting?
Its turbo time!
Ah,
Since you’re in the Philippines, you won’t be able to watch it on sherdog… You’ll have to wait for the ESPN Star Sports broadcast. Sorry.

I miss the night crew days, they were the most entertaining comment sections here hands down. With the coma/death of MMA in Japan, I fear there will never be another ‘lets mutherfukers’ moment on BE again.

And I just realized that that wasn't an overnight event.
I feel dumb now. But hey, soccer kicks a’comin’, hells yeah!

a) Andy Wang no longer has corn rows
b) I believe the stream is only geoblocked in Singapore
c) I think the odds on a Kwol Son are overly generous
d) the liason office who one fc sent to meet me at the airport was hot
That is all.
Pic or GTFO
Just kidding (kinda)…have fun at the event

Grrrrrrr
Finally an MMA card that airs at a reasonable time in Scandinavia (1pm) and I’ll be far away from my computer at a baptism. Final proof that there is no god.
