"Cannot say anyone in particular" - Roman Kryklia determined to face all-comers in defense of either one of his world titles

After making quick work of of Lyndon Knowles, Roman Kryklia is looking forward to receiving more challengers in his reign as a double world champion. The ONE heavyweight Muay Thai world title match took place on April 4 at ONE Fight Night 30 inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand

Kryklia was asked during the post-fight interview if he had any opponent or name in mind that he wanted to call out. But he never mentioned anyone; instead, he just reiterated his readiness to welcome everyone. He said:

"No, I cannot say anyone in particular, but I'm waiting for really good challengers and some relly strong opponents for me."

The Ukrainian knockout machine further extended his immaculate run in the world's largest martial arts organization to seven and improved his finish rate to 86 percent following this highlight-reel finish of Knowles.

Kyrklia added Knowles to his pile of victims, who already had the likes of Andrei Stoica, Iraj Azizpour, and Alex Roberts.

Roman Kryklia pointed out the hole in the defense of Lyndon Knowles and capitalized on it to secure the win at ONE Fight Night 30

During the same post-fight interview, the Champ Belts-affiliated athlete also explained that when he found the hole in Knowles' defense, he was sure that the fight wasn't going to last, especially that they were fighting in the four-ounce gloves.

According to Kryklia, it was only a matter of time before he found the finishing blow, as he claimed:

"Yeah, exactly. When I got him the first time, I understood that it was almost over, because [we were in] small gloves, and I felt that his defense was not perfect, and for me, it was a gift. And I thought that it would be the end soon."
