Heavyweights kicked off the first bout of ONE on Prime Video 1 card. Iranian fighters Amir Aliakbari and Italy-based Mauro Cerilli took part in a battle of big boys. Aliakbari returned to the winning column as he dominated the bout.

The Hammer had momentum on his side as he was coming off a win over Abdulbasir Vagabov. Whereas, his Iranian counterpart was coming off a first-round T/KO loss to the interim heavyweight champion, Anatoly Malykhin.

Thus, the 34-year-old wanted to get back into the win column. And he performed as such.

In the first round, Aliakbari put his opponent to the ground and showed how dominant he could be. With brutal ground and pounds, the heavyweight almost put his Italian opponent out, but the time ran out.
