In the headline attraction, reigning ONE Heavyweight MMA World Champion “Reug Reug” Oumar Kane will defend his coveted gold against former divisional king Anatoly “Sladkiy” Malykhin in a highly anticipated rematch. The rivalry stems from their initial encounter at ONE 169 in late 2024, where Kane utilized his elite wrestling and heavy hands to give the Russian the first defeat of his professional career. The split-decision victory earned the Senegalese star the heavyweight gold, while effectively ending Malykhin’s historic run as a three-division World Champion.
