"Machinegun kicks" - Fans tremble at Superlek's insane pad workout heading into ONE Friday Fights 68 in Bangkok
Reigning ONE flyweight kickboxing world champion Superlek Kiatmoo9 is going ballistic ahead of his Muay Thai clash with fellow Thai brawler Kongthoranee Sor Sommai on June 28.
Superlek and Kongthoranee will be co-headlining the ONE Friday Fights 68 card inside the Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, and the former is more than ready for this all-Thai battle.
ONE Championship recently posted a video of 'The Kicking Machine' doing a lot of kicks on the pads and wrote the caption:
"How many kicks was that 😱 Will 'The Kicking Machine' unleash his wrath on Kongthoranee on June 28 at ONE Friday Fights 68? 💥 @superlek789"
This short clip, during which Superlek landed more than 45 consecutive leg kicks, has impressed the fans, particularly users @johnny_jones_jj_official, @silkyy.smoove, @prisca_xix, @robinmaxfield1979, and @limktg_7132, as they commented:
"machinegun kick 😅😂"
"The fit is fire and the beat goes harrrdd 😂😍🔥🔥"
"48 kicks 🦵 in 20.97 seconds .............. That's crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Good form as well , Ain't nobody on top of their game atm like Superlek 🔥🔥🔥"
"Superlek is not called 'The kicking MACHINE' for nothing!! 🇹🇭🔥⚙️🦿🔥"
Superlek aims to extend his winning streak against Kongthoranee and sustain momentum heading into Jonathan Haggerty megafight
This upcoming non-title bout for Superlek will keep him as active as possible. He looks to extend his win streak to 10, which dates back to May 2022, because now he currently rides nine straight wins under the ONE banner.
A victory for him would surely sustain his momentum heading into his champion-versus-champion fight with Jonathan Haggerty.
The Kiatmoo9 Gym representative will be challenging Haggerty for the ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title in an attempt to be the first-ever two-sport and two-division world champion in the world's largest martial arts organization.
Superlek's super fight against Haggerty goes down at ONE 168: Denver on September 6 at Ball Arena in Colorado.
ONE Friday Fights 68 is available live on pay-per-view at watch.onefc.com. Tickets for ONE 168: Denver are available at Ticketmaster.
