About Vladimir Kuzmin

Vladimir Kuzmin is an agile striker who is looking to make a serious statement in ONE Championship’s bantamweight Muay Thai division. The striking ace had a nearly perfect record leading up to his debut on the global stage, including earning a silver medal at the 2017 World Games in Wroclaw, Poland. 

Kuzmin earned his main-roster spot by winning the one-night Road to ONE 4 tournament in November 2020, defeating both of his opponents via unanimous decision. 

The Russian’s ability to both pressure his opponents and fight off the back foot makes him a threat to every bantamweight striker. Furthermore, the Fight Club Archangel Michael representative has demonstrated his ability to withstand even the most powerful blows. He refuses to give up, no matter how demanding or well-known his opponents are. 

The Yekaterinburg resident aspires to be the ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion and is eager to face the organization’s most difficult challenges to get there.  

Kuzmin stood out in his first matchup inside the Circle, bringing home a unanimous decision against Scotland’s Chris Shaw after an all-out striking war in February 2022. Although he dropped a pair of razor-thin decisions to “Elbow Zombie” Muangthai PK.Saenchai and Jonathan “The General” Haggerty in the months following, he reminded the world that he is a force to be reckoned with when he defeated the dangerous Fabio “Sensational” Reis by unanimous decision at ONE Friday Fights 39. 

He’ll be looking to carry on his winning ways at ONE 166: Qatar, when he faces Zafer Sayik in a 147.75-pound catchweight Muay Thai battle when ONE makes its highly anticipated on-ground debut in Qatar on Friday, March 1.
