Dana White’s Rival Promotion Who Extended Offer to Joe Rogan, Surprises Translator With Bonus

Dana White and UFC's competitors, ONE Championship have found an interesting way of competing with the UFC with their latest bonus.

ONE Championship is slowly becoming a threat to Dana White and the UFC. While the UFC CEO will not admit it, the way ONE Championship is doing things is certainly getting a lot of attention. And with their latest move, we can be sure that it will only attract more eyes to the Asian combat sports promotion.

ONE Championship has the advantage of putting on different disciplines. They have events in MMA, Muay Thai, Jiu-Jitsu, Kickboxing, and others. Therefore, they have this advantage over the UFC. However, the UFC is a global brand and is easily the leader in MMA. But this does not stop Chatri Sityadong and ONE Championship from trying to compete in every way possible.

ONE Championship offers the most unique post-fight bonus 

At ONE Friday Fights 38, ONE Championship did something that no promotion has ever done. The promotion has built a reputation for giving generous bonuses. However, this time it’s different. They announced that the translator for the interviews would get a bonus. President Chatri Sityadong gave the translator for the night an incredible 350,000 baht bonus for his work at the event. It works out to around $10,000.

This is another way that ONE Championship will try to get more attention to themselves. Prior to this, they offered Joe Rogan the chance to commentate on their events. And Joe Rogan is arguably the most recognizable commentator on the UFC.

Therefore, it is clear that the Asian promotion is continuing to do things very differently. They have always stuck by the fact that they are looking to compete with the biggest promotions in the world and are doing it in the most unconventional ways possible.

While the UFC and Dana White will not pay much attention to these steps, it will undoubtedly draw eyes to their events and their promotion if they can continue to pull off such moves. Who knows what’s next on ONE Championship’s bid to compete with the UFC?

What do you make of ONE Championship giving the post-fight interview translator a bonus? Do you think the UFC shoulder offer its broadcast team bonuses post-fight?
