A ton of tension leading up to #ONEBadBlood



ONE: Bad Blood will feature a highly anticipated grudge match-up between elite talents at the top of the card. In the main event, MMA vet and current ONE titleholder Bibiano Fernandes will put his title on the line against the fearless striker, John Lineker.

Bibiano Fernandes | Pro MMA Record: 24–4

There is a ton of tension between these two, and they verbally went back and forth a few times before. Fernandes has earned 24 professional MMA victories, nearly half of them coming by stoppage. Fernandes stopped top-ranked opponent and former ONE champion Kevin Belingon within round two via submission in his last outing. Other than their dislike for each other, these two have in common: they prefer to leave their fights out of the judge’s hands. This Friday, there will be no more talking, and both competitors will have the opportunity to go toe to toe.

John Lineker | Pro MMA Record: 34–9

Throughout his professional MMA career, upcoming ONE title challenger, John Lineker, has lived up to his fight name, “Hands of Stone.” Lineker possesses top-tier KO ability because once he connects, there’s a high chance it will be lights out for his opponents. Out of his 34 wins, he gathered 16 of them via KO/TKO. This classic striker versus grappler fight with a title on the line has all the potential of being a historic competitive showdown. It isn’t easy to see this one going for the full 25 minutes.

Anatoliy Malykhin | Pro MMA Record: 9-0 


Kirill Grishenko | Pro MMA Record: 5-0

Before the main event title bout, this fight card will feature a co-main Interim Heavyweight Championship outing. In this title heavyweight collision, Anatoliy Malykhin will collide with Kirill Grishenko. Malykhin and Grishenko are currently undefeated in their professional MMA careers. Collectively, both fighters have a total of 13 wins via stoppage. ONE: Bad Blood promises to be a thriller of a fight card!
