I was supposed to have a fight earlier, but it didn't happen. Now I have a new date – late autumn. It will be a heavyweight match. I really want to focus on competing only in the heavyweight division because cutting weight affects my strength. As for my opponent? It will be just the one we need.
On November 8, 2024, Anatoly Malykhin lost to Oumar Kane by split decision of the judges and lost the heavyweight belt, remaining ONE League champion in the light heavyweight and middleweight divisions. Malykhin's record in professional MMA is 14-1.
