Jonathan Haggerty issues ominous warning towards Superlek ahead of ONE 168

Jonathan Haggerty, who has claimed three finishes in his last six victories, promises that Superlek will be in for a rude awakening when they share the circle at ONE 168: Denver.

Speaking with the South China Morning Post, 'The General' stated:

"Yeah, 100% I feel like he's going to come out for the first two rounds, trying to stop me, and once he realizes he can't, and I'm in there to fight, and I'm in there, and I'm tougher than ever, he's going to be questioning himself as soon as I start putting the combinations together. Yeah, there we go."
