John Lineker One-Punch KO Power Puts Troy Worthen To Sleep

“Hands of Stone” barely broke a sweat in this clash versus “Pretty Boy” Troy Worthen at ONE on TNT III, which aired via tape-delay in April 2021. Lineker stalked his rival like a hungry predator, constantly pressuring him with punches in bunches.

Worthen tried to disrupt his rival’s onslaught with a couple of takedown attempts, but none of that seemed to have stopped Lineker in his tracks.

Eko Roni Saputra’s Nasty Heel Hook Draws A Tap From Yodkaikaew

Indonesia’s Eko Roni Saputra is in the form of his life. And his tapout victory versus Yodkaikaew “Y2K” Fairtex at ONE 162 in October last year further backed that statement.  The Evolve MMA athlete controlled the pace of the bout from the get-go, pressuring his Thai rival with two successive takedowns. Unfortunately, Yodkaikaew got back to his feet on both attempts. 

Not one to rest on his laurels, the 31-year-old further pressed with his wrestling game. Eventually, he got his opponent where he wanted him to be. Yodkaikaew was still reluctant to get entangled on the canvas, and he soon decided to escape again.

However, he left his right leg exposed, and Saputra jumped in for a heel hook, which drew an instant tap from his foe at 2:16 of the opening frame.

Martin Nguyen’s Flying Knee Starches Narantungalag Jadambaa 

Former ONE Featherweight World Champion Martin “The Situ-Asian” Nguyen wants to get his career back on track at ONE Fight Night 7. And if he needs any inspiration, he can look back at his stunning knockout of Narantungalag “Tungaa” Jadambaa in early 2019.

After dissecting his opponent’s defense with hard leg kicks in the opening stanza, Nguyen repeated the same tactics at the start of the second frame.
