Why did Roberto Soldic choose ONE Championship?

Being a two-division world champion at the time, 'Robocop' Roberto Soldic had a world of opportunity ahead of him as a free agent. He chose ONE Championship as his home. In an interview on The MMA Hour with Ariel Helwani, he explained why.

Soldic said it was the opportunity to compete in multiple sports, such as kickboxing, and also how fighters are treated that drew him to the Asian organization.

“I went to Singapore and when I saw all atmosphere with Chatri [Sityodtong] and how he treated the fighters, the relationship, and he gave me the best offer. He said to me, ‘You can be a unique fighter and I will give you all the chances to take different belts from all sports.' So finally, this is the day I took ONE Championship and I see how happy the fighters are, some really good fighters.”

Additionally, the Croatian fighter added:

“I want to hold all the belts from all combat sports. Nobody did this before, so this is for me is the biggest challenge.”

Fans are no doubt eager to see his debut in ONE Championship later this year. Soldic is a powerful southpaw striker with tons of skill and experience at the highest level. He will now test himself in the deeper combat waters that ONE Championship represents at ONE on Prime Video 5.
