In the "ONE: Strike Hard" match on January 14, Ikatrina Ikatrina, known as the "most beautiful boxer", played against Thai actress Supergirl.
In the pre-match warm-up, the 18-year-old Supergirl actually called the 30-year-old Ikatrina too old, which may have aroused Ikatrina's fighting spirit, and at the beginning of the game, Ikatrina developed a fierce attack. To be honest, having watched Ikatrina play so many games, I have never seen her so fierce.
Although Supergirl is also a supernova of female Muay Thai, she was directly flustered by Ikatrina. At one point, the passive defense even carried a combo of dozens of punches from Ikatrina.
In the second round, Ikatrina's fierce elbow blow directly swollen Supergirl's forehead, and she was stunned at this time, holding on hard to keep standing. It can be said that from an intuitive point of view, whether it is hurtfulness and initiative or the control of the scene, Ikatrina has the advantage.
But when the result of the match was announced, the referee actually ruled on a disagreement to determine that Supergirl had won, which not only puzzled Ikatrina, but also surprised the audience, and various analysis, black whistles and other remarks followed.
Even at the post-match press conference, ONE Championship President Siyudo also expressed a clear view of the match, he said: I think Ikatrina won without controversy, she beat Supergirl to a shaky, we respect the referee has different opinions, some people may not agree with my point of view, but I think Ikatrina is the winner of this game.
And, starting with this match, the ONE Championship will have a $50,000 bonus, with Icatrina's name prominently listed and Supergirl not.
It also further indicates Howyo's view of the match and what seems to be some protest against the referee's decision.
At the same time, Xi YouTang also said that he would strengthen the selection and training of referees in the future. In fact, there is more than one controversial penalty competition in the ONE Championship Arena, which is partly due to the different competition rules of the ONE Championship and other competitions, and it seems to be closely related to the concept and level of the referee.
However, As the CEO of the ONE Championship, Xi youtang was able to face the controversy and even punched his own referee in the face, which at least shows the determination of the ONE Championship to do a good job in the management of penalties and referees.
Today's ONE Championship has received a large amount of financing, and a number of important competition information has been announced at the beginning of the year, I believe that 2022 must be another year to expand the territory and further expand the market. Doing a good job in sentencing penalties, ensuring that the competition is fair and just, and giving the audience an acceptable judgment result is the top priority of an event to establish its own brand.
