In the five-slide post, 'The Hands of Stone's' victories over Asa Ten Pow (in September 2024 at ONE 168: Denver), Troy Worthen (in April 2021 at ONE on TNT III), Kevin Belingon (in November 2020 at ONE: Inside the Matrix III), Kim Jae Woong (in August 2023 at ONE Fight Night 13), and Bibiano Fernandes (March 2022 at ONE: Lights Out) were featured.

These stoppage wins by the Brazilian MMA superstar have allowed him to rack up an impressive 71% finish rate in seven wins under the promotion.


John Lineker looks forward to a barnburner with Alexey Balyko in their Muay Thai bout at ONE Fight Night 25

After his successful debut in Muay Thai last month, John Lineker accepted a quick turnaround match to face Alexey Balyko on Oct. 4 at ONE Fight Night 25, which goes down inside the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

Ahead of their clash, he shared his thoughts with ONE Championship from a recent interview and said that he expects a good fight with the Russian contender, as he said:

"Honestly, I don't know much about him. I just hope we can put on a good fight. He's definitely a tough guy, he's coming off some good wins, and he's only lost once in ONE. He's a guy with more experience than me in Muay Thai, but i believe we'll put on a great show for the fans."

ONE Fight Night 25 is available live and free to all Prime Video subscribers in North America on Oct. 4 during U.S. primetime.
