“We come from different styles” - Kirill Grishenko ripped and ready for Ben Tynan test at ONE Fight Night 34

Belarusian heavyweight fighter Kirill Grishenko said his upcoming showdown against Canadian Ben Tynan presents an interesting dynamic of contrasting styles. He, however, asserted that he is ready for the match and believes he has what it takes to emerge on top.

The noted wrestlers are featured in a heavyweight MMA clash at ONE Fight Night 34: Eersel vs. Jarvis on Aug. 1 at the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. Both fighters are gunning for an all-important victory to maintain their solid standing in the heavyweight class.

In an interview with ONE Championship in line with his scheduled return to action, Kirill Grishenko shared his thoughts on how he and fellow wrestler Tynan will fare against one another and possible key to the match.

"Yeah, we’re both wrestlers, but we come from different styles. Let’s not forget we’re fighting under MMA rules, and it all comes down to who’s better at adapting their wrestling to striking."

At ONE Fight Night 34, Kirill Grishenko looks to build on the momentum of a two-fight winning streak. His most recent victory came in February, where he scored an opening-round TKO win over Mauro Cerilli of Italy.

Tynan, meanwhile, returns after a year-long break from competition and is out to resume his assault on the top of the heavyweight division.
