"He will not be able to catch me" – Denis Puric believes his underrated footwork will be too much for Rodtang

39-year-old striking veteran 'The Bosnian Menace' Denis Puric is heading into his next fight full of confidence, against what is likely to be the toughest fight in his career. He believes he can shock the world and score a victory over one of the most popular fighters in the game.

Puric is set to lock horns with reigning ONE flyweight Muay Thai world champion 'The Iron Man' Rodtang Jitmuangnon of Thailand in a three-round kickboxing showdown at ONE 167: Stamp vs. Zamboanga on Prime Video.

The event broadcasts live from the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand.

Fans in the United States and Canada can catch all the action live and absolutely free on Friday, June 7, U.S. primetime on Amazon Prime Video.

Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Puric said that his elusive style will be too much for 'The Iron Man' and that the Thai superstar will have trouble finding him.

'The Bosnian Menace' said:

"As long as I'm in shape, I'll be too fast, too strong, and I move. He will not be able to catch me. He just comes forward and square."

If Puric is able to defeat Rodtang, it will no doubt be the biggest victory of his career, and the 39-year-old says he will be coming for the Muay Thai and kickboxing belts.
