This fight was 100% action from beginning to end. I’d also like to say Capitan showed amazing sportsmanship and took the yellow card without a bunch of argument. Both men really had gutsy performances!

[@sivasatchidananda3989]

Yeah! The ref didn't have to take a point away and the yellow cards. Let them fight. They should fight 2 more times.

[@Rey_eo]

@@sivasatchidananda3989 bro if the ref didn't, it would've became a Muay Thai match 😅

[@Lloh_Rnd]

On the contrary, as soon as Akimoto hurt him in the 2nd he started to try and cheat his way out of kickboxing with that dirty grab and hit. He just kept on doing it, trying to break the rhythm and sneak strikes in at the same time. Perfect reaction from the ref not tolerating any of it.

@@Lloh_Rnd Is punching from the clinch illegal in kickboxing in One FC?

[@sallhame]

Akimotos techniques are cleaner, and therefore stronger. And he takes roundhouse kicks standing like a rock. Both excellent fighters though. But as a Kyokushin black belt, I am of course happy that Akomoto won this. Osu!

[@leer9246]

Akimoto and Capitan both tough as Hell! A Rematch would be Fantastic! I think Akimoto won this one even without points or yellow cards but I am sure they bothered Capitan.

[@kurosan0079]

When Capitan started clinching, I had a feeling that Akimoto could win this comfortably. He very clearly brought Capitan out of his comfort zone since he started doing Muay Thai-only techs (clinching, dumping) in a kickboxing match. Would love to see a rematch though and see how Capitan would adjust against the kyokushin fighter.

[@todd7619]

Wow. Akimoto was very impressive and Capitan never took a step back 👏 the second yellow card seemed too quick and the point deduction was even faster. Akimoto would've won regardless imo and it was a great match!

[@CabralNick]

@Jake Collins This is the thing, the Thai fighter's transition to Kickboxing is always good, but when they start to feel the pressure and can't control the distance or out boxing their opponent, they clinch, not necessarily trying to cheat or something, it looks more like an 'instinct to rely on what they are most familiar with' kinda thing.

[@chrisprad8325]

@Jake Collins the second yellow card was not a clinch, he didn’t even hold the back of the head

[@gnarrcan108]

@Jake Collins second yellow card wasn’t needed imo the first was definitely a foul after being warned but the second was barley a clinch. The point deduction was also kinda sus bc it looked like it was just a frame into a knee to the midsection and not a Muay Thai clinch.

[@lexchill101]

Great fight! The toughness of Kyokushin conditioning is just freaky.

[@hioxd]

For body and leg shots, but they dont condition for headshots because its not allowed I think

Just rewatching all of akimoto's fights before the title defense later tonight. I've followed him since day 1 and he has improved massively after his first three fights on One. He came out so much stronger after that 15 month lay off and is on a level of his own now. I believe the belt will stay with him against petchtanong. Way to go champ 🙌🙌🙌

Great fight! Capitan went into this fight over confident in my opinion. One of the best of the night if not the best. I'd like to see a rematch.

[@pheejl7534]

Maybe Capitan was a little overconfident. Maybe. Not entirely sure. But he is the smarter and more skilled fighter, imo. However, that Akimoto guy is just such a physically durable guy that just keeps on coming and grinding. What he falls behind in techniques/skills, he makes up in strength, conditioning, and pure heart, and as hard as Capitan tried, he just couldn’t break him.

[@ptcast709]

@@pheejl7534 You said it well. My statement wasn't trying to discredit Akimoto at all. He's a great all around fighter that's why he dethroned the champ. A great fight worthy of a rematch!
