Bellator News: Two Title Fights Confirmed for September Champions Series Events
The ONE 169 main event will mark the first time Malykhin has defended his heavyweight belt after the unbeaten triple-champ unified the heavyweight titles against Arjan Bhullar last year, and “Spartak” followed that performance up by earning a second win over Reinier de Ridder that also crowned him as the undisputed ONE light heavyweight champion.
“Reug Reug” has only suffered one loss in his MMA career and is currently on a three-fight win streak, and in his most recent outing the 32-year-old took a unanimous decision over Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu legend Marcus Buchecha in one of the wildest heavyweight fights in recent memory.
The co-main event for ONE 169 will also feature a trilogy bout between Tawanchai PK Saenchai and “Smokin'” Jo Nattawut for the ONE Featherweight Muay Thai title, and between that and the massive main event ONE Championship’s card in Atlanta on November 8 is already shaping up to be a must-watch affair.
