Senegalese wrestling sensation Oumar 'Reug Reug' Kane wants to prove naysayers wrong and he can't wait to deliver a beatdown on three-division MMA world champion 'Sladkiy' Anatoly Malykhin later this year.

'Reug Reug' is coming off a first-round finish of countryman Boucher Ketchup at ONE Fight Night 23 on Prime Video last week. And now, the 32-year-old heavyweight behemoth shifts his focus to a much more important fight coming up.

'Reug Reug' is set to challenge Russia's 'Sladkiy' Anatoly Malykhin for the ONE heavyweight MMA world title.

The two lock horns at ONE 169: Atlanta, which broadcasts live from the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia on Friday, November 8th.

He is the reigning and undisputed ONE heavyweight, light heavyweight, and middleweight MMA world champion and has a perfect record in the world's largest martial arts organization.
