ONE CHAMPIONSHIP STRENGTHENS ITS AGENT CERTIFICATION

29 April 2019 – Singapore: The largest global sports media property in Asian history, ONE Championship™ (ONE), has increased requirements and standards for the ONE Agent Certification program. The ONE Agent Certification was originally created to establish uniform standards of eligibility and conduct for all Agents, Managers, and/or Advisors seeking to work with ONE athletes.

ONE Championship aims to create a healthier, happier, and safer environment for our athletes both in and out of the arena." ONE Championship’s goal is to allow each athlete the opportunity to select a certified ONE Agent who has agreed to abide by specific rules and regulations in representing or advising athletes honestly, competently, loyally, and zealously. The ONE Agent Certification strives to allow each athlete the opportunity to make better-informed decisions about their careers, empowering each athlete by making available a comprehensive disclosure of facts relevant to the ability of a professional to serve as a fiduciary representative or advisor, and by regulating the conduct of each individual engaged in the functions of an agent or advisor or in recruiting and providing services for athletes. In addition, the ONE Agent Certification ensures uniformity and consistency in the rules and standards applicable to athlete agents, whose business activities are often national or international in scope, notwithstanding the different laws, rules, and regulations of the many national, state, and local jurisdictions that might otherwise govern these activities. Another function is to provide athletes, athlete agents, and/or advisors with fair, cost-effective and expeditious procedures for privately resolving any disputes concerning business relationships, transactions or contractual obligations.

LOCKTON PHILIPPINES LAUNCHES FIRST LEGACY AWARDS TO MARK 25 YEARS

 

Lockton Philippines launches the 1st Legacy Awards to mark 25 years

Action research initiatives on environmental challenges and solutions take centerstage in the competition

Lockton Philippines, one of the country’s leading insurance and risk management providers, is celebrating its 25th anniversary with the launch of the 1st Lockton Philippines Legacy Awards.

Established in 1994, Lockton Philippines has been developing and managing insurance programs for companies from a wide range of sectors such as power, energy, education, food, transportation, business process outsourcing (BPO), and infrastructure, among many others. The company is an affiliate of Lockton Companies Inc., the world’s largest privately held insurance brokerage firm with over 90 offices in different countries.

With its thrust of helping make businesses better, Lockton Philippines is turning its attention to an issue that has had an increasingly significant impact on industries and communities – environmental risk.    

“Though it does not immediately come to mind when talking about business risks, the reality is that the environment poses some of the biggest threats to industries,” says Vic Valledor, President & CEO of Lockton Philippines. “Similarly, the way businesses operate has the same huge impact on the environment. Solutions that lessen their environmental impact will also help in effectively dealing with the risks that this brings.”

The Lockton Philippines Legacy Awards is designed to recognize action research initiatives that promote responsible and efficient use of resources and help bring positive change in the way people look at protecting the environment.

And who better to involve than the ones who will be most affected by what is accomplished in the present. According to Valledor, “We want to engage the next generation of minds, nurturing the ideas that can refine local business practices and promote better livelihood. It’s a wonderful way to celebrate our anniversary – giving college students a chance to represent their school and bring their big ideas to a national stage while helping protect the environment.”

The awards program requires participants to submit an evaluative, investigative, and analytical action research proposal that presents better practices for businesses to operate. It is open to teams of 3 to 5 Filipino college students, currently enrolled in a BS or BA program in any Philippine tertiary education institution. Each team is required to have one faculty adviser who is duly recognized by the school.

Nino Sauler, Lockton Philippines AVP and head of the awards program committee, says, “Knowing that conditions and environmental concerns, as well as corresponding solutions may vary in different areas, we’ve opened the competition to colleges and universities nationwide.” He continues, “We particularly want to reach schools in the provinces – those that haven’t had the opportunity to join competitions such as the Legacy Awards.”

To further encourage participation of more schools outside the big cities, the Lockton Philippines Legacy Awards is selecting winners from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, aside from the over-all Grand Prize winner. Cash prizes up to Php300,000 are to be awarded to the student group, faculty advisor, and the school. Participating teams also have the opportunity to win special awards, which focus on indigenous communities and marine conservation.

Lockton Philippines Legacy Awards’ deadline of submission of entries is on September 2, 2019. All winning entries will be announced in October, with the possibility of collaborating with partner companies to have the winning proposals implemented.  

“There are many powerful ideas out there that are waiting to be heard and recognized. The 1st Lockton Philippines Legacy Awards aims to encourage college students to share their thoughts and work on issues that matter for the environment now and especially in the future,” Valledor concludes.

It’s going to be a fantastic show.” Martin Nguyen, ONE Featherweight World Champion, stated: “It’s my fourth time competing here in Manila, and I’ve always felt at home here. It’s an honor to share my talent with you all. Thank you to all the fans for the support. Challenging the legend Jadambaa himself, it’s such an honor.

This is not about age, this is about passion. Martial arts is my life and I hold the utmost respect for anyone who has the courage to step inside that cage.

Martin Nguyen's Return And Saruta-Pacio Rematch Headline ONE: ROOTS OF HONOR

Martin Nguyen's Return And Saruta-Pacio Rematch Headline ONE: ROOTS OF HONOR

ONE Featherweight World Champion Martin “The Situ-Asian” Nguyen is coming back, and he’s ready to defend his title in the main event of ONE: ROOTS OF HONOR on 12 April at the Mall of Asia Arena in Manila, Philippines. Nguyen will be facing former featherweight kingpin Narantungalag Jadambaa of Mongolia.

Nguyen took over the ONE world in 2017 when he captured a World Championship in both the lightweight and featherweight divisions. He scored exciting one-punch KO wins over Marat Gafarov and Eduard Folayang to earn the belts, and the Vietnamese-Australian martial artist was on top of the world. The year 2018 was a bit more challenging.

Nguyen attempted to drop down to bantamweight to challenge ONE Bantamweight World Champion Bibiano Fernandes. He came up just short when he lost by split decision in March 2018. Nguyen would rebound with a split-decision victory over Christian Lee in a rematch in May 2018, but the Situ-Asian would lose his second bout of the year in July 2018 when he battled Kevin Belingon for the interim bantamweight title.

The quest for unprecedented greatness might have done a number of Nguyen’s body. He suffered an injury that sidelined him for the rest of the year, the entire first quarter of 2019 and forced him to relinquish the lightweight belt. Now that he is fully healthy and still the ONE Featherweight World Champion, he is ready to return to the cage and defend his title.

Jadambaa is a proven ONE veteran who has compiled a 14-5 record, and he’s been in the cage with the best featherweights in the promotion. In fact, Jadambaa has faced and lost to Gafurov twice by rear-naked choke. The first defeat took place in 2015 and the most recent was in 2016. Jadambaa was set to face Tetsuya Yamada in 2017, but the bout was canceled and the Mongolian wound up sitting out the entire year.

However, he did come back strong in 2018. Jadambaa competed twice in less than a month. He defeated Edward Kelly via second-round TKO on 23 June, and then came back on 13 July to defeat Kazuki Tokudome by decision.

Nguyen won’t be the only competitor potentially suffering from cage rust. Jadambaa will have been out of action for nine months when he steps in with Nguyen. It will be interesting to see if either man shows ill effects from their layoff.

In the co-main event, another ONE World Title will be on the line. Reigning champion Yosuke “The Ninja” Saruta will defend his ONE Strawweight World Title in a rematch with the Philippines’ own Joshua “The Passion” Pacio.

In the first meeting, Saruta stepped in as a late replacement for Hayato Suzuki, who had to bow out due to injury. Pacio seemed to be primed for the rematch with Suzuki after he’d lost to the Japanese veteran in their first bout. It’s possible Pacio took Saruta lightly. It’s also possible Saruta was just better on the night the two men initially clashed. Perhaps it was a combination of both.

In any case, Pacio and Saruta will have a rematch with Pacio having an opportunity to avenge the defeat and regain his title, or the current champion can prove the first win was no fluke.
