Of course, the UFC leads the way by quite some distance, but Bellator and ONE certainly have great products in their own right.<\/p>\n<p>ONE tends to have the upper hand in the Asian market and that&#8217;s been the case for a while. In equal measure, though, Bellator have made significant strides forward thanks to their relationship with Rizin.<\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest positives for ONE Championship lately has been their association with Prime Video. When <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=lr94dvDYsiU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">discussing<\/a> a recent event that took place on their platform, Chatri Sityodtong opted to comment on Bellator MMA after the interviewer brought them up.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Chatri Sityodtong | ONE Championship on Prime Video 4 | Post fight interview\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lr94dvDYsiU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI mean, look at the viewership numbers, look at the social media metrics, look at organic video views, anything. Bellator is like 5% that of ONE, okay? Even competition wise, our champions would steamroll Bellator guys. The only co-promotion I\u2019m interested in is UFC, champion vs champion.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The rise of ONE Championship<\/h3>\n<p>It seems unlikely that we&#8217;ll see ONE Championship take part in a crossover event anytime soon. It&#8217;d be great if they could strike a deal with the UFC but for as long as we can remember, Dana White hasn&#8217;t been particularly interested in such a move.<\/p>\n<p>An alliance &#8211; or possibly even rivalry &#8211; with Bellator could do wonders for both promotions. Alas, it feels as if that isn&#8217;t going to be on the cards.<\/p>\n<p><em>What product do you prefer watching: Bellator or ONE Championship? Do you think either will be able to rise to UFC&#8217;s level in the next decade or so?
