WATCH: Senegalese wrestling machine Oumar 'Reug Reug' Kane throws his hands in stunning KO of Batradz Gazzaev

ONE heavyweight MMA star Oumar Kane made Batradz Gazzaev pay dearly for trying to intimidate him in the face-offs ahead of their clash at ONE 161 in Sept. 2022.

Midway through the second round, the Senegalese wrestling machine stuffed a takedown attempt from the Russian star and battered him with hammer fists to leave the circle with a TKO victory.

Watch the highlights of Oumar Kane's destructive power below, as shared by ONE on Instagram:

Following his third TKO win under the ONE banner, Kane dominated Jasur Mirzamukhamedov and 17-time Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) world champion Marcus 'Buchecha' Almeida in back-to-back unanimous decision outings.

Kane will now challenge three-division MMA kingpin Anatoly Malykhin for the ONE heavyweight MMA world championship at ONE 169: Atlanta on Nov. 8 inside the State Farm Arena.

Aung La N Sang predicts knockout finish between Anatoly Malykhin, Oumar Kane

Former two-division ONE MMA world champion Aung La N Sang expects an absolute war when Anatoly Malykhin, who also holds the ONE light heavyweight and middleweight MMA world titles, defends the heavyweight MMA crown against Oumar Kane at ONE 169.

'The Burmese Python' shared his thoughts on the main event of the Nov. 8 card inside the State Farm Arena in a sit-down interview with The AllStar:

"I think someone's gonna get knocked out. They both have a lot of power, and they both have pretty good wrestling, too."

Aung La N Sang added:

"'Reug Reug', I believe, is going to be a little bit bigger, right? Size-wise. But size doesn't mean everything as well, you know. Anatoly is always game. So I don't know, man. It's going to be a pretty even matchup as far as the skill set, the raw skill set goes, right?"

Tickets for ONE 169 are available via Ticketmaster.
