Oumar 'Reug Reug' Kane isn't backing down in his verbal assault on Anatoly Malykhin, as the two prepare to face off for the ONE Heavyweight MMA World Title in the main event of ONE 169. Scheduled for November 8 at Lumpinee Stadium, the fight will pit Kane, a powerful Senegalese wrestler, against Malykhin, the reigning ONE Middleweight, Light Heavyweight, and Heavyweight MMA World Champion.
As the event draws closer, Kane has taken to social media to ramp up the trash talk. He accused Malykhin of dodging him, labeling the Russian fighter a "fake champ" and questioning his willingness to face a real challenge. Kane's Instagram post included a taunting message:
"Fake champ saw me and started running. @anmalykhin WHY ARE YOU RUNNING?"
For Kane, this bout is the biggest opportunity of his career. With a 6-1 record in ONE Championship, he’s riding the momentum of a four-fight win streak. His most significant victory came when he defeated Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu legend Marcus 'Buchecha' Almeida in a grueling unanimous decision at ONE Fight Night 13. Now, he’s aiming for gold in his first-ever title fight.
But standing in his way is Anatoly Malykhin, an undefeated knockout artist with a 14-0 career record and six dominant wins in ONE Championship. Malykhin, who has made a name for himself with his brutal finishing power, is fresh off a victory in the 205-pound division, where he claimed the ONE Middleweight MMA World Title from Reinier de Ridder at ONE 166. His unbeaten record and relentless style have made him one of the most feared fighters in the organization.
While Malykhin’s skill and power make him a daunting opponent, 'Reug Reug' remains undeterred, fully confident that he can dethrone the reigning champion. As the tension builds between the two heavyweights, fans can expect an explosive showdown at ONE 169.
