ONE FC - Reign of Champions - Dubai

ONE FC - Reign of Champions - Dubai

Many people know I was unsure about ONE FC when it first started, not the idea but the execution.
Well, I was wrong. ONE FC has blossomed and grown into the Biggest Asian MMA Event and it continues to grow a pace and it must be the Number 2 MMA event World Wide.
The quality of the fighters continues to improve with lots of high quality imports and as we saw recently with Eric Kelly's super ballsy display a similar increase in the quality of the local fighters.

And this is the year that ONE FC really broke out adding more and more venues Asia wide.

And that brings us to:

ONE FC: REIGN OF CHAMPIONS in Dubai on 29 August is set to be the biggest event in ONE Fighting Championship's history with 3 world championship title fights and the biggest names in MMA today! 

Get ready to witness Shinya Aoki, Ben Askren, Kamal "Prince of Persia" Shalorus, Nobutatsu Suzuki, Koji Oishi and many more in action. ALL IN ONE NIGHT!

Lets get up and let's get ill party people as the FMD crew proudly presents: Full Metal Dojo 2, Protect Your Neck. 

MMA and a Party... Rock'n Roll!

This show is only the second ever Full Metal Dojo, but it's already looking like hot gold. As tickets go on sale this week! "And what tickets do we have? where can I get them?" You may be asking yourself.  Well tickets are on sale at Seduction Night Club, Fight Lab locations, as well as reservable options on Full Metal Dojo's extreme to the max Facebook page. Yes the standard 1,000 baht "cover charge" tickets will be out and about. But you better be a cat or some sort of really quick animal, cause those tickets are going to be gone ultra fast. 

Never worry! Full Metal Dojo is offering new and improved tickets to liven up the event. Look into cage side tickets and V.I.P. Dojo booths! Because… that's what's hot on the streets. That's what all the cool kids are doing. That's what we're talking about, and really, it's a very fair price.

The golden ticket... is a weeks holiday on the tropical island of Phuket, which will include training at 2 of Asia's top destination gyms (as well as others), island hopping and cliff humping around Koh Phi Phi, as well as all access to the entire Full Metal Dojo event. From the weigh-ins, to the undercard, from the main event to the after party, from the after after party, to brunch the next day, it will truly be a once in a lifetime trip. You should make it happen. You deserve it. That is all.
