WATCH: Sound on! John Lineker’s terrifying striking is the stuff of nightmares in MMA and Muay Thai

John Lineker has firmly established himself as a feared force in ONE Championship, known for leaving a trail of battered opponents in his wake.

Since joining the organization in 2019, the former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion has showcased his ability to deliver devastating knockouts.

Watch the collection of John Lineker’s thunderous knockouts in ONE Championship below:

Among his most notable victims is fellow former champion Bibiano Fernandes, who fell to Lineker’s signature power in March 2022.

In that bout, Lineker’s devastating left hook in the second round left Fernandes motionless, snatching the divisional throne from his Brazilian compatriot.

Although his reign as champion was short-lived, Lineker’s ability to electrify audiences never wavered. In August 2023, he delivered a come-from-behind knockout of Kim Jae Woong, solidifying his status as a one-punch finishing machine.

In 2024, Lineker has found a new lease on life with his transition to Muay Thai.

Despite his wealth of experience with 39 MMA bouts under his belt, ‘Hands of Stone’ has exceeded all expectations in ‘the art of eight limbs.’

The Brazilian began his Muay Thai career with a bang, knocking out his first two opponents in spectacular fashion.

First, he dismantled American striker Asa Ten Pow in the second round of their September 2024 encounter, and just weeks later, he swiftly finished Russian hard-hitter Alexey Balyko.
