Jo Nattawut eyes 73rd career win at ONE Friday Fights 81

Jo Nattawut's electrifying fighting style will again be on display as he fights ONE interim featherweight kickboxing world champion Superbon in a Muay Thai matchup at ONE Friday Fights 81 on Sept. 27 inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

Superbon is entering the anticipated showdown with momentum after defeating longtime rival Marat Grigorian this past April in their trilogy fight, where he won the interim 155-pound kickboxing crown.

With their upcoming encounter being held under Muay Thai rules, though, Nattawut's awesome power could result in a highlight-reel finish of Superbon.

ONE Friday Fights 81 is available live at Asian primetime on pay-per-view at watch.onefc.com.
