Recently Released UFC Vet John Lineker Announces Signing with One Championship

It didn’t take John Lineker long to find a new home.

The hard-hitting Brazilian bantamweight announced via Twitter that he has signed with Singapore-based promotion One Championship. Lineker was released by the UFC last week after he withdrew from a short-notice fight against Rob Font at UFC Greenville due to a cut on his face.

“I will answer all the questions out there about myself in the ring!” Lineker wrote. “People will be changing the channel to watch me fight! I will continue to do what I love! Fight and put on a show!
