Brazilian MMA star John Lineker owns two knockouts and two TKO triumphs in six victories since his ONE Championship debut in October 2019. This includes dethroning then-ONE bantamweight MMA world champion Bibiano Fernandes in March 2022 with a crushing left hand.

Taking to Instagram, the promotion shared all four displays of Lineker's devastating knockout power with the accompanying caption:

"They call him 'Hands of Stone' for a reason 💪 How will John Lineker's Muay Thai debut play out at ONE 168: Denver? @johnlinekermma"

After coming up short in his fights against fellow Brazilian star Fabricio Andrade over the ONE bantamweight MMA world championship, 'Hands of Stone' bounced back with stellar outings over Kim Jae Woong and Filipino spitfire Stephen Loman.

However, Lineker's two-fight winning streak ended with a rear-naked choke at the hands of former ONE lightweight MMA world champion Shinya Aoki this past January at ONE 165.

The American Top Team star will look to return to his winning ways by defeating Asa Ten Pow in his bantamweight Muay Thai debut at ONE 168: Denver on September 6 at Ball Arena.


John Lineker dissects Asa Ten Pow's biggest strengths ahead of ONE 168

John Lineker believes he has Asa Ten Pow figured out ahead of their upcoming bantamweight Muay Thai showdown at ONE 168: Denver.

Speaking with ONE Championship, 'Hands of Stone' shed light on what he will be on the lookout for against Ten Pow, saying:

"From what I've seen, he's a fast guy who moves around a lot. He uses kicks and front attacks very well. He also works well with straight punches and uses his elbows a lot."

Watch ONE 168: Denver live inside the Ball Arena on September 6. Tickets are available via Ticketmaster.
