WATCH: Three-division king Anatoly Malykhin's collection of skull-crushing knockouts in his unstoppable ONE Championship run
Three-division ONE MMA world champion Anatoly Malykhin rose to the top of the promotion's heavyweight, light heavyweight, and middleweight MMA divisions because of the knockout power in his hands.
The world's largest martial arts promotion shared all six of Malykhin's finishes under the ONE banner on Instagram with the accompanying caption:
"SIX FINISHES 👊🔥 Will Anatoly Malykhin make it SEVEN knockouts in a row and retain his Heavyweight MMA World Championship at ONE 169? @anmalykhin"
Malykhin leaned heavily on his boxing abilities in his two world title fights against former two-division MMA king Reinier de Ridder over the light heavyweight MMA crown in December 2022 and this past March at ONE 166: Qatar for the 205-pound MMA crown.
'Sladkiy' has also proven the strength of his ground game by brushing off Arjan Bhullar's takedown attempts en route to the third-round TKO for the undisputed ONE heavyweight MMA world title at ONE Friday Fights 22 in June 2023.
The Golden Team product will look to remain undefeated in his ONE tenure when he defends the ONE heavyweight MMA world championship against Oumar 'Reug Reug' Kane at ONE 169: Malykhin vs. 'Reug Reug' on Nov. 8 inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
Jarred Brooks praises Anatoly Malykhin's well-rounded skillset
ONE interim strawweight MMA world champion Jarred Brooks noted Anatoly Malykhin's well-rounded skillset as his most significant advantage against Oumar Kane at ONE 169.
'The Monkey God' shared in an interview with ONE:
"The thing I like out of this fight is Anatoly Malykhin is super technical with his boxing, his kickboxing, his Muay Thai, and his wrestling is great. So he's a very, very hard domino to knock down."
ONE 169 will air live and free to all Prime Video subscribers in the United States and Canada.
