If this was in the UFC, this would be a clear robbery. 29-28 Phogat was clear. ONE's ruleset is interesting... While Phogat didn't do much damage, I would have thought all the control time in 1st and 2nd would have mattered but I guess they just value dmg that much more?

From the 1st round I was not expecting to see a finish, though Bhullar would try to lay and pray, glad we got to see a finish!

I like ONE’s mix of MMA and Muay Tai, I wish they’d switch to a round by round scoring system, Phogat was robbed

The ONE scoring “system” is just another excuse for the organization to hand wins to the fighter it wants to promote rather than the fighter that actually won. Nguyen has a big social media following and ONE has to justify keeping her on the roster because she was on a losing streak, she needed this win badly so they gave it to her. 

ONE also has no qualms about ******* over fighters from India, they do it constantly.

ONE Championship has this thing where they try their best to not give Canada any love for fighters who are part Canadian as well as _____. Angela and Christian Lee, they're Canadian-born. Arjan Bhullar is Indian-Canadian, and has literally repped Canada at the Commonwealth and Pan American games. But ONE tries to wipe that for whatever reason. It irks me lmao, but it is what it is. Canadian MMA is ******* dire right now. They could prob get more attention from the average Canadian if they promoted the fact that many of their top-tier fighters are Canadian, but nah. 

With all that being said, big congrats to Bhullar. Has always seemed like a great guy and it's great to see a Canadian do some work on a big stage.

I'm happy for Arjan he's actually from the same city as me (Richmond). The gym he trains in is like 5 minutes away by car. Sad they made no mention the Canadian side of his heritage, but this is ONE FC and they are an Asian-focused company, so I get it as a business move. 
As for the Ritu, she definitely got the shaft by the judges. Although I wouldn't agree Chatri or ONE are against Indian fighters. Chatri like Dana would love to have an Indian superstars because India is potentially a massive market for MMA. Probably only behind China in terms of business opportunities. Unless it's the Lee Siblings or Aun La I don't believe ONE would outright rigged the outcome of a fight.

I have zero issue with them putting a bigger emphasis on the Indian heritage, but it feels weird when they go out of their way to lie about things. They have said multiple times that Bhullar was born & raised in India and that's just a lie. He was born & raised in BC but his background is obviously Indian. 

I also feel like you're doing him as disservice to not acknowledge the Canadian background because Bhullar has multiple freestyle wrestling medals while representing Canada. ****, he won gold at the Commonwealth Games in 2010. The games were held in Delhi, India and even there Bhullar represented Canada.

It just feels weirdly dishonest, that's all. I'm happy that Bhullar can rep two countries and inspire people. Having an Indian world champ is no doubt a massive thing, but there's ways to focus on his Indian heritage without just making up straight-up lies about his backstory and whatnot.

It especially feels dishonest, given how they import Indian fighters with padded records to get obliterated by their fighters who train at Evolve MMA.
