Ben “Vanilla Thunder” Tynan

Ben Tynan’s enigmatic personality and 100 percent finishing rate are sure to see him become a ONE Championship fan favorite. 

“Vanilla Thunder” is a Canadian Junior Freestyle National Champion and qualified for the prestigious NCAA Division I National Championships after making the move to North Dakota State University.

Tynan’s extensive wrestling background has been pivotal to his MMA career, as he has used his grappling prowess to defeat all of his opponents in the amateur and professional ranks.

But the Canadian isn’t a one-trick pony. With a competitive background in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, submission grappling, and kickboxing, Tynan has developed a well-rounded mixed martial arts repertoire.

The undefeated heavyweight is now poised to test his mettle on the global stage, beginning with South Korean knockout artist Kang Ji Won. The pair will lock horns in a fascinating clash of styles at ONE Fight Night 16: Haggerty vs. Andrade on Prime Video this November 3.
