One Championship News & FeaturesONE Friday Fights 47 Highlight Video: Coopar Royal Taps Komronbek Oritkov
Family Fight Team prospect Coopar Royal rallied to put away Komronbek Oritkov with a triangle armbar in the third round of their flyweight attraction at ONE Friday Fights 47. Likely behind on the scorecards, Royal (3-0, 2-0 ONE) brought it to a close 3:16 into Round 3.
Oritkov (1-1, 1-1 ONE) executed multiple takedowns across the first 10 minutes—a belly-to-belly suplex that would have made Magnum T.A. proud highlighted his efforts—and paired them with suffocation control. Royal stayed composed despite mounting frustration and waited for his chance to change course. Oritkov executed another takedown in the third round, only to be met by a series of short elbows from his Australian counterpart. Royal lured him into a false sense of security, snuck the triangle in place, isolated the arm and prompted the tapout.
The 24-year-old Royal has finished two of his first three opponents.
