The stacked ONE 169 card went down inside the legendary Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, on Friday night, where three world titles were on the line. It was headlined by the ONE heavyweight MMA world title match between defending champion Anatoly Malykhin and challenger Oumar Kane.

Eleven bouts across MMA, Muay Thai, and kickboxing have produced show-stopping finishes that thrilled fans and deserved an additional $50,000 performance bonus from ONE Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong. Find out the athletes who secured it from the event below.


#3. Ayaka Miura

Ayaka Miura gifted Macarena Aragon a rude welcome in ONE Championship when she made quick of her during their atomweight MMA clash with a first-round submission victory to collect the seventh victory under the promotion.

'Zombie' instantly took the Argentinian down with a takedown and worked her way into a submission maneuver until she secured the scarf hold finish at the 2:20 mark of the opening round.

This outstanding showing of grappling prowess has allowed Miura to bag the additional $50,000 bonus from Chatri Soityodtong.


#2. Marcus Almeida

17-time BJJ world champion Marcus Almeida has successfully bounced back from his first MMA defeat at the hands of Oumar Kane after he submitted Amir Aliakbari in their crucial heavyweight MMA showdown via a rear-naked choke in the opening round.

Almeida quickly imposed his superiority in the grappling department by securing the double-leg takedown and the top position before transitioning into a back take for the rear-naked choke finish at the 3:15 mark.

'Buchecha' impressed not only the fans with this performance but also ONE Chairman and CEO Chatri, who handed him the extra $50,000 payout.


#1. Kade Ruotolo

The constant development of Kade Ruotolo's arsenal continued to shine as he scored a massive victory against Ahmed Mujtaba in his second MMA outing with a first-round D'arce choke submission.

The ONE lightweight submission grappling king showed tremendous power when he uncorked an overhand right punch that sent the Pakistani star down the mat. Ruotolo tried to wrap up the match with ground-and-pound strikes, but the submission became more available, and he seized the opportunity for another signature triumph.

The Atos representative continued to accumulate bonus wins, as ONE Chairman and CEO Chatri Sityodtong awarded him an additional $50,000.
