This episode is brought to you by the false sense of security that a cup gives you… I’m dana blouin and this episode is your Asian MMA weekend recap. There was SOOOOO Much fight action in SE Asia over the weekend, and some crazy 3 on 3 action to talk about. Before I get started though, If I don’t cover your event, but you had one this past weekend or you’re gonna have one sometime soon, reach out and let us know that you are putting on events because I want to cover them and bring eyes to your event and the fighters putting it all on the line. Hit me up at asianmmapodcast@gmail.com so I know what's going on. Also, there won’t be a video version of the podcast this week because I am traveling. But that should be back next week. Let’s get it started This first one wasn’t on the weekend, but just before and that was ONE Warrior Series in Singapore on Thursday the 25th. I’ve said before that I am a really big fan of OWS, I think they are doing a lot of good things In the main event Phuket, Thailand based Brazilian Carlos Prates stopped previously unbeaten EFC Welterweight champ Gunther Kaluda in the second round with a body shot. It was a wild two rounds leading up to the stoppage, but Prates was just too much for Kaluda. This whole card was stacked with great fighters from the regional scene. I know it’s a development league for ONE Championship, but DAMN they put on good cards. ONE Hero Series 5, Singapore, April 25th Carlos Prates def. Gunther Kaluda by TKO in round two Ahmed Faez Anuar def. Pardeep Kumar by Submission (Armbar) in round two Shinechagtga Zoltsetseg def. Chan Samart by Decision Jerry Olsim def.
