"Our styles are very different" - John Lineker breaks down what sets him apart from fellow KO artist Kulabdam

John Lineker is known primarily for one thing and that is his incredible highlight reel that he has accumulated over time.

The former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion is one of the very best knockout artists that the lower weight classes in MMA have ever had.

In recent times, he has been applying this trade in Muay Thai, where his track record for putting opponents out has continued to follow.

That has led him to ONE Fight Night 27, where at Lumpinee Stadium on Jan. 10, he will face off with Kulabdam Sor Jor Piek Uthai in a fight that has got the fans counting down the minutes until they step through the ropes in Bangkok, Thailand.

Though both men are known for landing with devastating force, Lineker does not believe they have the same approach.

The Brazilian has always been a very boxing-heavy competitor whilst his opponent utilizes his entire Muay Thai skillset to separate his opponents from consciousness.

John Lineker spoke about this in a recent interview with ONE Championship in the build-up to one of the most exciting matchups in recent times:

"Our styles are very different. I use my boxing more and he uses Muay Thai, so they are different styles."

John Lineker will be put to the test

Seeing how the boxing of John Lineker would compare with Muay Thai strikers has been a fascinating venture in recent times.

So far, his opponents haven't been able to stop 'Hands of Stone' from walking them down and unleashing his most dangerous weapons.

Kulabdam provides a step-up in competition for Lineker as an experienced competitor who has shared the ring with some of the very best.

If he's able to use his entire arsenal to keep Lineker back and stop his opponent from bullying him around the ring, the fight could get very interesting.

ONE Fight Night 27 will be available to active Amazon Prime Video susbcribers in North America.
