No one has really ever done more than two (at least in orgs of consequence). Several orgs have had fighters who tried for three, most recently Parnasse in KSW (I think), but no one has grabbed the elusive third belt. Poatan has as good a chance as anyone ever has, bc he has that monumental KO power.

Malykhin has 3 belts in One FC but LHW and HW don’t have a lot of fighters

You're sure right. I wasn't aware that he had three. That makes him the only one, I suppose. True, though, their higher weight classes are very thin. MMA for ONE at all is kinda thin, anymore. Even still, three belts simultaneously is quite an accomplishment.

Malykhin beat the same guy for two of them, so it was kind of a freeby. But yeah, he's the first triple champ I'm aware of.
It'll have a bit more weight if he gets a title defense for each one.
