Tempers are beginning to flair between Anatoly Malykhin and Oumar Kane (better known as “Reug Reug”) ahead of their ONE 169 heavyweight title encounter.
What started a peaceful faceoff at Wednesday’s pre-fight press conference in advance of Friday’s event, which takes place at Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, turned into a physical one between the combatants.
Reigning ONE Championship triple champ Malykhin (14-0) approached his opponent and stuck his hands out in a gun motion. That caused “Reug Reug” (6-1) to react by slapping the hand away, then the pair inched closer to each other.
