‘Singh’ Arjan Bhullar is the ONE heavyweight king and has heard enough from 'Sladkiy' Anatoly Malykhin. Russia's Malykhin won the ONE interim heavyweight world title earlier this year and recently captured the ONE light heavyweight world championship as well.

'Sladkiy' has proclaimed himself to be a double world champion. Bhullar points out that this is false due to him not holding the divisional heavyweight world title. Arjan Bhullar still proudly holds that world championship.

On Instagram, the Indian-Canadian fighter made a post mocking Malykhin and Amir Aliakbari and posed with two belts. He shared:

"Hey look I'm a champ champ too [ONE Championship] Give me a date to put these on the line against the Persian Princess [Amir Aliakbari] or the baby who cries for his wife after every fight [Anatoly Malykhin]."

Bhullar also shared a post after Malykhin's defeat of Reinier de Ridder, stating that the Russian is not a double world champion:

"He's not a 2 weight champ [ONE Championship] he's now the light heavyweight champ. It's easy to punch out a BJJ guy with 0 takedown ability. He did what he was supposed to. Let me do what I'm supposed to. I was told March earlier this week. Still waiting on the paperwork ..."

‘Singh’ Arjan Bhullar calls Anatoly Malykhin a coward

ONE heavyweight world champion Arjan ‘Singh’ Bhullar is ready to battle the Russian knockout machine Anatoly Malykhin. After capturing the heavyweight throne in 2021 via a TKO win over Brandon Vera, Bhullar has unfortunately sat out due to contract negotiations and injuries. But now, he is ready for action.

In a recent interview with ONE, Arjan Bhullar claimed that Malykhin is a coward:

“Anatoly [Malykhin] has been very vocal, and I will respond to that closer to the fight and in the fight, to be quite honest. He hasn’t posted anything since I’ve announced I was back. Check his social media. He hasn’t said a [expletive] thing. That shows you what kind of coward he really is and what he actually thinks of the situation.”

Bhullar is ready to defend his crown against 'Sladkiy' and unify the two heavyweight world titles. The battle between the two heavyweight kings may become the most anticipated fight of 2023. 'Singh' concluded:

“I’m back. I’ve been wanting to fight since the entire time I’ve been out. I’m wanting to fight now. I’ll fight him next week.”
