“Iron sharpens iron” – Thai wrecking machines Petchtanong and Superbon hone each other’s blades in training
Iron sharpens iron as two of the best strikers in the world — Petchtanong Petchfergus and Superbon — hone each other's skills ahead of their respective returns to the Circle.
Fresh off his interim ONE featherweight Muay Thai world title-winning performance against Marat Grigorian, Superbon is lending a hand to his countryman in the gym as Petchtanong gears up for a high-stakes clash with Russian standout Alaverdi Ramazanov at ONE Fight Night 23 on Friday, July 5.
"Iron sharpens iron. Can Petchtanong emerge victorious on July 5 when he collides with Alaverdi Ramazanov at ONE Fight Night 23 on Prime Video?"
ONE Championship fans lit up the comments section on Instagram, many of them backing Petchtanong to come out on top in his first promotional appearance since November 2022.
"I was fortunate enough to see Petchtanong fight in Australia I think in 2011. Amazing fighter. So good to see him still at the top."
"He will win definitely."
"Petch will be much to slick for him IMO."
Petchtatong is one of the most decorated fighters in the history of the art of eight limbs, boasting more than 350 career wins over the course of his two-decade-long run. Under the ONE Championship banner, he is coming off back-to-back victories against Zhang Chenglong and Hiroki Akimoto.
Standing in his way of making it three in a row is Alaverdi Ramazanov, known by his fans as the 'Babyface Killer.' Currently, Ramazanov is the No. 3 ranked bantamweight kickboxing contender in the world.
With a win over a noteworthy name like Petchtanong, Ramazanov could set himself up for a potential title fight with current bantamweight kickboxing king Jonathan Haggerty.
Who comes out on top when two of ONE's most experienced and decorated strikers square off inside the legendary Lumpinee Boxing Stadium?
ONE Championship fans in the United States and Canada can watch ONE Fight Night 23 live and for free via Amazon Prime Video in U.S. primetime on Friday, July 5.
