Malykhin, the then-ONE interim heavyweight MMA world champion, made a bold move to light heavyweight to challenge Reinier de Ridder for divisional supremacy at ONE on Prime Video 5 in December 2022.

'Sladkiy' authored a dominant outing, dismantling the previously undefeated Dutchman in the opening round to become a two-division world titleholder.

The brutal beatdown was so severe that De Ridder had to be stretchered out of the arena in the aftermath of Malykhin's onslaught.

Meanwhile, Tawanchai's rise to superstardom continued as he dispatched Superbon in their rematch at ONE 170 this past January to retain the ONE featherweight Muay Thai world championship.

That same night, Andrade successfully defended the ONE bantamweight MMA world title in a second encounter against Kwon Won Il, crumpling his South Korean rival with a left hook to the midsection.
