Reigning and undisputed ONE light heavyweight kickboxing world champion and ONE Heavyweight Kickboxing World Grand Prix champion Roman Kryklia of Ukraine is as close to a perfect fighter as one can get.
The towering 6-foot-6-inch behemoth combines overbearing size and strength with supreme skill effortlessly and has remained unbeaten in ONE Championship since he joined the ranks of the world’s largest martial arts organization in 2019.
One of the most important aspects of Kryklia’s game, however, isn’t necessarily what he does in the ring but what he does outside of it. Kryklia is known as a workhorse and constantly participates in activities that keep him sharp and in shape year-round.

The 32-year-old said:
“I always train. Even after a fight, we train right away almost the next day. However, recently after fights, I substituted hard training with some alternatives – running, swimming, cycling, or just active rest. In general, I am always in shape.”
Kryklia will get another chance to prove himself on the world’s biggest stage when he returns to the ONE Championship ring for his next fight.
