Superbon takes lessons from Jo Nattawut’s fights against Tawanchai: “I will not let Jo think”

ONE interim featherweight kickboxing world champion Superbon believes he has discovered the secret sauce to beating 'Smokin' Jo Nattawut just days before the pair's showdown this weekend.

Superbon has gone back and watched tape of Nattawut's fights against reigning ONE featherweight Muay Thai world champion Tawanchai PK Saenchai, and says he found some holes in 'Smokin' Jo's game.

He told ONE Championship in a recent interview:

​

"When Jo fought with Tawanchai, Tawanchai gave him time to think, and Jo had enough energy to fight back. I will not let Jo think. I will not let him have enough energy to fight back."

How Superbon plans on executing his game plan to capitalize on those weaknesses is another story. It all comes to a head at ONE Friday Fights 81.

Superbon and Nattawut lock horns in the main event of ONE Friday Fights 81: Superbon vs. Nattawut, which broadcasts live from the historic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand on Friday, Sept. 27, Asia primetime.

Fans in the United States and Canada can catch all the action live via global pay-per-view on watch.onefc.com. Visit ONE Championship's official website for more information on how you can watch from your location.

Superbon says Muay Thai in ONE Championship is a huge risk: "You can get knocked out"

Superbon knows all too well the perils of competing in the cutthroat world of ONE Championship's Muay Thai ranks. With the small four-ounce gloves on, anything is possible.

He told ONE Championship:

​

"With the small gloves, you need to protect yourself better because if you open your guard, you can get knocked out. Sometimes with the big gloves, you can still get the block. So you need to be careful."

Superbon is returning to the Muay Thai realm for his fight with Jo Nattawut.
