“I'm faster” - Nabil Anane says he’ll run circles around Burmese brawler Soe Lin Oo at ONE Friday Fights 81

20-year-old Algerian-Thai sensation Nabil Anane is planning to run circles around Burmese lethwei icon Soe Lin Oo this weekend at ONE Friday Fights 81.

The six-foot-tall bantamweight Muay Thai contender believes he owns the speed advantage over the Myanma legend, and he will use every inch of his towering height and ungodly reach to trouble his opponent.

Speaking to the media at the official ONE Friday Fights 81 virtual press conference Wednesday, Anane had this to say about his game plan against Oo:

​

"My advantage is I'm faster, but also Soe Lin Oo is quite strong, but whether or not I can stop him, let's see in the ring."

Nabil Anane and Soe Lin Oo are set to square off in a three-round bantamweight Muay Thai showdown.

The two lock horns in the co-main event at ONE Friday Fights 81: Superbon vs. Nattawut, which broadcasts live from the historic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand on Friday, Sept. 27.

Fans in the United States and Canada can catch all the action live via global pay-per-view on watch.onefc.com. Stay tuned to Sportskeeda MMA for all the latest news and updates surrounding the event, as it happens.
