Dmitry Menshikov

Dmitry Menshikov is a force to be reckoned with for any lightweight striker who crosses his path. 

The Russian star was born and raised in the city of Prokopyevsk. There, he excelled in sports from a young age, starting with hockey before later switching to football. 

Menshikov’s sporting dreams were turned upside down at age 14, however, when he was urged by his father to try a Muay Thai class at the famed Empire Club. The youngster was instantly hooked. 

Under the tutelage of some of Russia’s best Muay Thai coaches, Menshikov quickly took to the sport. He went on to compete across Europe, where he amassed 19 knockouts and an impressive 27-2 professional slate before joining ONE Championship. 

He stepped onto the global stage on the heels of an 11-fight winning streak, and the heavy-handed Russian brings a fearsome punching arsenal capable of ending fights in the blink of an eye.
