"They're just staring into space" - Fans feel the concussive power of John Lineker in his collection of KOs in ONE Championship

Former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion John Lineker is undoubtedly one of the deadliest strikers on the ONE Championship roster owing to his five highlight-reel finishes.

The world's largest martial arts promotion shared all five of them on Instagram, featuring his one-shot knockout of then-bantamweight MMA king Bibiano Fernandes to win the 145-pound MMA crown in March 2022:

Fans reacted to the American Top Team fighter's power in the comments section:

"The crazy ones are number 2 [Troy Worthen] and 5 [Bibiano Fernandes], the way they're just staring into space not even defending themselves, it definitely look like they've been hit with a brick."

"🔥Hand Canons🔥"

"IQ high in the last slide. That elbow punch 😏 iykyk."

"Bros hands are lethal 🔥"

"Suitable to be a boxer 😂"

After competing in the promotion's bantamweight MMA division for the better part of the past five years, Lineker debuted in the art of eight limbs at ONE 168: Denver last Sept. 6 inside the Ball Arena in Denver against Asa Ten Pow.

'Hands of Stone' had little difficulty going blow-for-blow with Ten Pow and eventually won via knockout in the second round.
