Arjan Bhullar Ready to Make Calculations with Anatoly Malykhin

– After several delays, Arjan Bhullar is ready to prove the interim One Heavyweight belt holder Anatoly Malykhin.

The ruler of the One Heavyweight division from India will make calculations with Malykhin at Lumpinee Boxing Stadium Bangkok, Friday night this week (23/6/2023). Taking place at the famous Thai stadium, Bhullar finally came down from the mountain to finish his nemesis.

In many moments, Bhullar, who last appeared in 2021, received lots of scorn from Malykhin. Not without reason, the Indian star is often absent when challenged by the interim belt holder.

When Bhullar was sidelined due to contractual issues resulting in injury, Malykhin kept going and pushed his way through the heavyweight division. Not only that, the Russian star also won the One Light Heavyweight belt from Reinier de Ridder late last year.

“Firstly, he is not a two-division World Champion. He is the Light Heavyweight World Champion. I am the World Champion in the heavyweight division, and we are going to fight,” said Bhullar.

However, all that evidence still doesn’t mean much to Bhullar. According to the divisional lord, Malykhin’s abilities were still untested.

“He’s never been hit. He had never been kicked. He has never been hit by a knee. It has never been dragged down. He’s never been pushed. He has never been made uncomfortable.”

Seeing Malykhin’s game in One Championship, Bhullar said that the Russian star was not without fault. However, there really isn’t anyone in the heavyweight division who can corner the athlete nicknamed “Sladkiy”. Therefore, Bhullar wanted to be a name that could test Malykhin’s abilities at the highest level. He will also prove it on the One Friday Fights 22 stage this week.

“There are many unanswered questions. I would ask that, and I don’t think he has the answer,” said Bhullar.

Apart from matches between elite giants, One Friday Fights 22 also features a World Championship match for the One Strawweight Muay Thai interim belt between Prajanchai PK.Saenchai and Sam-A Gaiyanghadao in the top match.

Apart from that, the ONE Flyweight Kickboxing World Champion Superlek Kiatmoo9 to Sitthichai Sitsongpeenong will also return to Muay Thai to face their respective elite opponents.
