Incredible title fights headline ONE Fight Night 3 – Sport360 News
There is not much to say about John Lineker that hasn’t already been said. A professional for more than 14 years he has taken on some of the very biggest names across his MMA career. With 45 fights under his belt, 36 of them wins, Lineker fulfilled his destiny and became a world champion in his last fight, taking the ONE bantamweight world title with a performance-of-the-night knockout of Bibiano Fernandes.
Fellow Brazilian Fabricio Andrade has been a whirlwind since making his pro MMA debut just three years ago. Building up a 8-2 overall record, the 25-year-old is unbeaten in ONE, with five consecutive wins. Just one of those fights has gone the distance, and Andrade has found multiple ways of stopping his opponents from rear-naked choke, punches, knees to the body, and a liver kick. This is a man capable of stopping fights at any moment.
ONE Lightweight Muay Thai World Championship Bout: Regian Eersel vs. Sinsamut Klinmee
For the first time ever, ONE will crown a lightweight Muay Thai world champion. Eersel comes into the fight as the ONE lightweight kickboxing world champion and seeking a second title belt. He is widely regarded as one of the best martial artists in the world, and made his way to ONE in April 2018. He won the kickboxing world title in just his third ONE fight, and has defended on four occasions since then.
Sinsamut Klinmee is a Muay Thai prodigy. Having only made his ONE debut earlier this year, two spectacular knockout finishes have propelled the Thai fighter in the limelight and a shot at the inaugural lightweight Muay Thai world championship. Klinmee grew up in the sport due to his family running a gym which produced a number of champions – on October 22 he has the opportunity to claim a title of his own.
