RCC fighter Ilyas Khamzin told that the Russian fighter Anatoly Malykhin despite his defeat against Senegalese Oumar Kane, will regain the ONE heavyweight championship belt.
On Saturday, 36-year-old Malykhin lost to Kane and was unable to defend the ONE heavyweight championship belt.
— I was worried about the first round, about this yellow card. I thought, okay, they gave me a yellow card, but I didn’t know if there would be a fine or not. And I think Malykhin won the second, third, fourth rounds: his opponent was stuck in the corner, Tolya was more precise. In the fifth round, a knockdown played a key role. I think he’ll return another belt, that’s his original weight, so we’ll wait. Siberia is power! – Khamzin told .
For Malykhin, this is the first defeat in 15 MMA fights; Kane, 32, now has seven wins and one loss.
