Additionally, the post mentioned that Anatoly Malykhin addressed UFC offers, stating he will not leave ONE Championship out of loyalty to the promotion that supported him when others did not. Malykhin said he would only consider moving to another organization if ONE Championship's leadership told him he was no longer needed.
