ONE Fight Night 23: Hulking behemoths Kang Ji Won and Kirill Grishenko set to throw down in heavyweight MMA clashÂ
A showdown between heavyweight MMA contenders Kang Ji Won and Kirill Grishenko has been added to ONE Fight Night 23: Buntan vs. Meksen on Prime Video on July 5 at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
There's been plenty of action in ONE's heavyweight MMA ranks as of late, and both these fighters are eager to keep their name in contention with a massive win.
Kang Ji Won, who holds a 4-2 slate in the world's largest martial arts organization, will look to keep his momentum following an impressive TKO victory over Mikhail Jamal Abdul-Latif at ONE Fight Night 18 last January.
The Korean slugger has certainly lived up to his 'Mighty Warrior' moniker and has become a fan favorite for his penchant for figuring in stand-up brawls. The Wang Ho affiliate's freakish power has also spelled the doom of Mehdi Bargi, Amir Aliakbari, and Paul Elliot.
Kang's still developing ground game, however, will once again be tested against Greco-Roman wrestling expert Kirill Grishenko. The 32-year-old is hungry to redeem himself following back-to-back losses against Anatoly Malykhin and Marcus 'Buchecha' Almeida.
Prior to those setbacks, the former ONE interim heavyweight world title challenger notched victories over 'Reug Reug' Oumar Kane and Dustin Joynson.
