Editor's Opinion
By Nakmen
Damn, this ONE/ADCC double is Mission Impossible-level but in grappling form! Helena Crevar at 19, ADCC champion?! It’s like a young Batman showing up in Gotham with a smile and a perfectly placed short choke. And Pawel Jaworski, the first Polish champion? A real OSS 117 of the mats, with footwork that makes Brazilian giants tremble. ONE has finally found its Jurassic Park of grappling: monsters under control, but with style. But… was Helena’s short choke really as clean as they say? Because in the ADCC, even finalists have flaws (like the dinosaures in Jurassic Park—they still escape a little). But hey, 15,000 fans going wild is already a Disney-level score, so we’ll let it slide. ONE, you’re on your way to becoming the King of the Ring of martial arts! 🚀
