"I'm going to take this guy's head off" - Ben Tynan wants to showcase underrated striking power vs. Duke Didier

Ben Tynan plans to dominate in his upcoming fight against Duke Didier.

In November 2023, Tynan made his ONE Championship debut against Kang Ji Won at ONE Fight Night 16. 'Vanilla Thunder' dominated with his superior grappling skills before putting the heavyweight division on notice by submitting Ji Won in round three.

On April 5, the 30-year-old Canadian will return for his second promotional fight at ONE Fight Night 21, which takes place inside the iconic Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. Tynan's latest test is Didier, who is coming off a split-decision defeat against Jasur Mirzamukhamedov.

Ben Tynan recently did an interview with ONE and had this to say about his upcoming opponent:

"He seems like he's a decent grappler. He's got something of a clinch, I'll give him that. That looks decent enough, but besides that, I don't know. I don't want to be too cocky, but I think I'm going to take this guy's head off."

ONE Fight Night 21 will air live on US primetime free of charge for existing Prime Video subscribers in North America.
