Superbon cautious of Jo Nattawut's boxing ahead of Bangkok meeting
Jo Nattawut and Superbon are two of the hardest-hitting fighters of the current era, yet they have varying styles in their offensive approach.
Superbon relies mostly on his artistic and fluid kicks, while Nattawut is more in tune with his hard-nosed punches.
In an interview with the South China Morning Post, Superbon said he's wary of Nattawut's boxing in their impending super fight in Bangkok this Friday.
The ONE interim featherweight kickboxing world champion pointed out that Nattawut's boxing has been a constant problem, especially against the top fighters in the featherweight division:
"I think he has good hand skills - good boxing. Jo has a lot of experience against top fighters in the featherweight division."
