Arjan Bhullar: UFC couldn’t match ‘unique’ offer from ONE Championship

Arjan Bhullar couldn’t refuse the offer he received from ONE Championship.

After a four-fight stint in the UFC, the heavyweight signed with the Asia-based promotion at the beginning of this month. Bhullar fought out his contract and tested free agency after a win over Juan Adams in May at UFC Ottawa. Bhullar went 3-1 in the UFC.

Bhullar said his decision to move to ONE came down to several things: money; ONE’s apparent plans to go to India; a greater chance of fighting for and winning title; a greater ability to build his brand in ONE; and staying more active there.
