Random Awesome Fights: Ole Laurson vs. Felipe Enomoto Headline ONE FC 2 - Battle Of Heroes

There's something beautiful about the set of rules used for Mixed Martial Arts in Asia. Maybe it's the five minute optional break after an eye poke that we so desperately need under the Unified Rules. Maybe its the ability to kick and knee to the head while on the ground, effectively eliminating that stupid "My hand is on the floor, you can't knee me in the face" loophole (not to mention simultaneously making North-South the bee's knees and making Jon Fitch the deadliest man alive). Maybe it's the fact that an Asian guy can win a decision fighting in a cage. I don't know. But I like it.

What I also like is ONE FC- Asia's premier MMA organization. Jakarta held 2012's first event with Filipino Ole Laurson taking on Japan's Felipe Enomoto. Talk about a good fight. I could break down the fight, and talk about who's a champion in what discipline prior to entering MMA, but you're probably going to look that up after watching this fight. It's a fun one.
