“Giant” Anatoly Malykhin is the first MMA boxer in the world to hold the three -weight championship at the same time. Before the competition with Oumar Kane (Reug Reug), Malykhin holds the One Championship belt of Middleweight, Light Heavyweight and Heavyweight.
Encountering Oumar Kane in the Heavyweight weight class, Malykhin is highly appreciated. The One Championship champion entered the match with a record of 14 matches (10 no, 4 submission). However, Oumar Kane created the biggest surprise against Malykhin.
The competition between Oumar Kane and Malykin in One 169 witnessed the champion constantly difficult. Malykhin could not overcome the gameplay about the objects made by Kane. Instead of eliminating the opponent as quickly as the previous times, Malykhin proved slow, ineffective and continuously for the opponent to dominate.
The match between Kane and Malykhin closed after 5 rounds. Only 1 of the three judges for the defending championship, the other 2 people leaned towards Oumar Kane. This result turned Senegal boxer into a new king, an unexpected script.
On Malykhin's side, this boxer was completely unexpected when the referee chanted the results. He himself knew he lost the opponent, and Kane also understood that he was a better player this time. They can rematch in the near future, because Malykhin certainly wants to regain the lost title.
