How highly do you rate Tang Kai, ONE’s Featherweight champion?
Tang Kai is 30 years old, fights at 155lbs, has a 20-4 record, and just defended his ONE featherweight belt last week. I genuinely think he could be top 15 in the UFC’s lightweight division easily, since there’s a lot of older guys taking up ranking spots. He’s right in his prime, and his last performance against 14-1 Russian wrestler Shamil Gasanov was a perfect anti-wrestling performance. Stuffed like 20 takedowns and TKO’d him with a brutal leg kick in the 4th round. Obviously because he’s an MMA fighter with ONE Championship, he’s only been able to fight once a year for the past couple of years, I would love to see him leave the promotion and be more of an active fighter, again he’s right in his prime, I hope it doesn’t get wasted. #sport
