ONE Championship will arrive at prime time for the North American audience with their ONE on Prime 1 show. The flyweight championship rematch between divisional king Adriano Moraes and MMA G.O.A.T. Demetrious Johnson will headline the show. A couple of massive attractions from the promotion gave their views about The Home of Martial Arts and the streaming giants’ partnership.

ONE atomweight world champion Angela Lee had a few words for Prime Video. ‘Unstoppable’ said, “Prime Video, that’s where it’s at! When I got the news on the partnership, I was so excited. I was like, ‘This is it, this is going to be the big blowup that ONE Championship needs to step into the U.S.”

Besides offering how the promotion will benefit from the deal, she reflected on how Prime Video is a part of her routine.

“I am a huge Prime user. Amazon is what we use the most, and we’re always on Prime Video.”

Although, she shared a lovely reason she couldn’t give time to the platform, “We haven’t gotten to see a movie in a while because of the baby, but having Prime Video makes it so much more convenient to watch [movies and shows] at home. So, I’m stoked about that.”

The 26-year-old athlete became the first mom-champion in promotion history. After a long hiatus, she defeated a former two sports champion, Stamp Fairtex, at ONE X. Thus, she will look to get on one of these Prime Video cards.

Eddie Alvarez also talked about ONE Championship and Prime Video’s deal

A former Bellator & UFC world champion, Eddie Alvarez, who wants to earn a third major title in the MMA scene, disclosed his conversation with ONE about committing to the North American audience.

‘The Underground King’ said, “I’ve actually been following the journey from the very beginning. The whole idea was to do what we’re doing right now, and that’s to get a large deal here in the United States. This is the beginning of that – making that footprint here in the United States.”
