The Heroes Of ONE: MARK OF GREATNESS React On Social Media

Alaverdi Ramazanov pays respect to Zhang Chenglong

The martial arts superstars who competed at ONE: MARK OF GREATNESS on Friday, 6 December left everything they had in the Circle.

After their respective bouts, the athletes paid respect to their opponents — regardless of who emerged victorious or who suffered defeat inside the Axiata Arena in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Now, just a few days removed from the promotion’s final live event of 2019, here is how our heroes showed their gratitude, respect, and compassion to their teams, fans, and rivals.

Always stay humble in victory and defeat. You must take the victories with grace and the losses also . Was an honour to stand across the cage from one of the best bantamweight/flyweights in the world . Just couple years ago, Indian fighters weren’t even in the conversation to be world contenders on the biggest global stage, there was no tv deals set up to broadcast our fights, no real support, and now one year later it has all changed and will continues to get bigger. The world is starting to realize we aren’t just known for Cricket but true warriors who have the deepest warrior spirit the world will witness. From common men and women, true warriors are born . You don’t have to be raised as an athlete, have a rich family, have special privledges , you just need a beating heart , a vision and the mindset to work hard everyday through every struggle and failure you will face in private and publicly. If the reason you aren’t taking a chance on your dream is because you are scared of failing, getting your heartbroken ,then you might as well lock yourself in a room till your last breath cause you already lost the essence of truly living. You will rise, you will fall but what you stood for and left of your spirit is what people will remember. From being that small town kid that got laughed at for ever dreaming and playing it small to fighting in front of millions of eyes around the world and sold-out arenas, I only got here based on the fact that I knew I was going to have to face the fear of risking it all in front of the eyes of the world , some days would be my day and some days it wouldn’t, but going out and seeing is a lot better than living a life of regret of playing it safe.Remember that “ What if” never made it to the arena, “What if” never realized what truly living is. I would fail my people , my culture, my values if I didn’t rise back . My peoples history is all about never backing down, never surrendering , it’s only about progression and growth . Thank you to all the amazing love and support from around the world.Thank you @onechampionship for this platform and see you guys in 2020 to write new historic chapters. ???????????????? #apnatimeaayega

Salutare, prieteni! Tocmai ce m-am întors din Malaezia și am revenit în sânul familiei, de care mi-a fost foarte dor. E tot ce mi-a lipsit pentru a mă simți și mai mandru și mai împlinit decât am fost vineri, după victoria frumoasă din cea mai puternică organizație de arte marțiale din Asia și, în curând, din lume. Este a doua victorie și primul K.O. din @onechampionship , o victorie cu atât mai dulce, când oponentul tău este unul foarte titrat și a luptat cu cele mai mari nume din kickbox. Dedic această victorie în primul rând fetiței mele nou-născute, Eva, și băiețeilor mei, Albert și Alex, soției și familiei mele. Vă mulțumesc vouă și prietenilor mei pentru sprijinul necondiționat, mulțumesc celei mai tari echipe cu care am lucrat vreodată, @teamstoica , pentru pregătirea de top, colegilor mei, echipei din spatele meu, antrenorului meu, @andreiochi și preparatorului meu, Florin Tașcă. Mulțumesc pentru încredere partenerilor mei, Golden Provider Distribution, JOSI Logistic, Drumețul Guard și ProLine Nutrition, care mă sprijină în viața sportivă de performanță și cărora le sunt maxim recunoscător pentru susținere! Mulțumesc organizatorilor @onechampionship pentru șansa de a lupta printre cei mai buni, în ultimul mare eveniment al anului! A fost un eveniment grozav și nu avea cum să iasă altfel, când se implică cei mai profesioniști organizatori cu care am lucrat vreodată. Nu în ultimul rând, vă mulțumesc vouă, prieteni, cei care ați fost alături de mine, care m-ați încurajat și m-ați motivat să dau tot ce am mai bun din mine și care m-ați ajutat să devin luptătorul care sunt astăzi. Nu rămâne decât să muncesc în continuare, să culeg roadele muncii și să îmi urmez visul de a ajunge până sus. Vă pup și vă iubesc!!
