"I just wouldn't get in the ring with him" - Fans acknowledge the sheer brutality of stepping into a fight against 'Reug Reug'
Upcoming ONE heavyweight MMA world title challenger Oumar 'Reug Reug' Kane is one of the most powerful fighters in the promotion.
The world's largest martial arts organization has posted solid evidence of this in a recent Instagram video and they captioned the video with:
"No escape 🦵 How will Reug Reug's grappling fare against Anatoly Malykhin when they battle for the ONE Heavyweight MMA World Title at ONE 169? @reugreug"
The short video highlighted the brute strength of 'Reug Reug,' and he was seen breaking a baseball bat by simulating a leg lock submission with it. He ripped apart the bat with relative ease in less than five seconds.
This display of power by the Senegalese MMA star has left fans in awe, as users @georgegeophoto, @simbathekimba, @tek_care, @solarsalmon, @cobali.medicinanatural, and @smartoh_ sent their reactions through their comments:
"I would never tap. I just wouldn't get in the ring with him at all 😂"
"they should change the caption to "this is why you cant fight reug reug"
"It look easy... For him"
"Please dont do that! You could hurt yourself with a cut!!! Save it for the russian!"
Ooohh!! Ouch!!! Just imagine the pain 😢"
"Nah, I ain't getting in that ring 😂"
