You want to know what a really strong punch sounds like? Listen to ONE Championship's John 'Hands of Stone' Lineker's fight with Troy Worthen.
The bantamweight title challenger's fight had no crowds present inside the Singapore Indoor Stadium and you can clearly hear the punches connect.
Lineker's body punches produced sickening sounds that would make you believe that he's effectively rearraged Worthen's insides with those blows. The former UFC standout is true to his nickname as his hands are seemingly made of concrete, jarring Worthen with every connection.
Lineker was known for his power in the UFC's flyweight and bantamweight divisions during his seven-year stint in the company. Lineker was one of the original fighters who proved that lower weight classes can pack serious KO power.
Long before Sean O'Malley, Deiveson Figueiredo and Cody Garbrandt, 'Hands of Stone' struck fear in the lower weight divisions.
The dynamic Brazilian has brought his trademark concussive power to ONE's 145-pound division. His bout with Troy Worthen is just one example.

The event's name is not just some placeholder to garner attention, the tension between the two is truly personal.
