WATCH: Thai megastar Superlek's clinical elbow counter against Portuguese striker Rui Botelho
ONE flyweight kickboxing world champion Superlek Kiatmoo9 is one of the deadliest strikers on the world's largest martial arts promotion's roster and he has many great performances that support this fact.
In his second fight under ONE Championship, 'The Kicking Machine' shared the Circle with Portuguese standout Rui Botelho at ONE: Warriors of Light on May 10, 2019.
Despite Botelho having the perceived advantage entering the contest as it was fought under Muay Thai rules, Superlek decided to give the Dinamite Team product a taste of his excellence.
In an Instagram video posted by ONE, Botelho was prepared to defend against a kick from Superlek but instead received a punishing elbow that resulted in a knockdown barely 30 seconds into the fight.
To Botelho's credit, he did try going blow-for-blow with Superlek, but the Buriram, Thailand native's onslaught was just too much to overcome and was defeated by unanimous decision.
Superlek would go on to forge a 13-1 record and is currently on a nine-fight winning streak while posting four finishes along the way.
Superlek eyes quick finish at ONE Friday Fights 68
The flyweight kickboxing king will make his way to the Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand for ONE Friday Fights 68 on Friday, June 8 where he takes on rising star Kongthoranee Sor Sommai in a flyweight Muay Thai contest.
The two-time Rajadamnern Stadium champion is on a massive seven-fight winning streak of his own, but Superlek has sights set on finishing Kongthoranee within three rounds as he told the South China Morning Post:
"My main focus is that I will try my best to KO or maybe just finish the game as soon as possible. I'm not saying that it's easy, I'm just going to try to find his weaknesses."
