WATCH: Canadian big man Ben Tynan’s electrifying debut against knockout merchant Kang Ji Won in Bangkok

The up-and-coming Canadian wrestler exudes a presence reminiscent of the iconic WWE era. Tynan’s signature bleach-blonde hair and outgoing demeanor are among the characteristics that captivate his fans.

Despite this, his undefeated record as an MMA fighter is what truly solidifies his legacy.

At ONE Fight Night 16 in November 2023, Tynan made his debut at ONE Championship and proved that he is more than just a newcomer. He showcased an impressive performance against the formidable Kang Ji Won, ultimately defeating him in round three with an arm triangle submission.

Take a look at the scorching finale down below:

On Friday, April 5, the undefeated Canadian is prepared to once again face a tough opponent as he takes on Aussie heavyweight Duke Didier at ONE Fight Night 21 in Bangkok.

Didier, on the other hand, is determined to bounce back from his split decision loss to Jasur Mirzamukhamedov at ONE 158 in 2022. Known for his dominant wrestling skills, Didier aims to challenge ‘Vanilla Thunder’s’ grappling abilities with his own tactics during Friday night’s bout.

The highly-anticipated ONE Friday Fights 21 will take place at the renowned Lumpinee Boxing Stadium and will be streamed live and free for all Prime Video subscribers in the United States and Canada.

“Preparing for Battle: Ben Tynan’s Excitement and Dedication to the Fight Game”

In the past, Ben Tynan used to sit in front of the television, dreaming of one day becoming a successful wrestling star.

After being inspired by legendary wrestlers such as ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin and Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, Tynan felt a strong sense of belonging on the stage. This led him to pursue a career in MMA after excelling in collegiate wrestling.

Tynan takes pride in his decision to secure his fifth consecutive win in the world’s largest martial arts organization this past year.

Filled with gratitude for the chain of events that brought him to his first triumph at ONE, ‘Vanilla Thunder’ posted the following caption on Instagram:

“What an experience. I had so many firsts this past week. First time flying across the planet, first time competing in a legendary venue like the Lumpinee Boxing Stadium, and then earning my first big fight bonus. The fight game is such a wild journey. I absolutely love it.”
