"Win this fight impressively" - Superbon says Jo Nattawut will be his ticket to another shot at two-sport supremacy
Superbon believes that his next opponent will be his golden ticket if he can get his hand raised inside Lumpinee Stadium.
As the current interim featherweight kickboxing world champion, the Thai striker is one of the best in the world.
In order to prove that, he crossed over into Muay Thai at the end of last year where he challenged Tawanchai PK Saenchai for the ONE featherweight Muay Thai world championship.
Now he's looking to secure another shot at the belt after coming up short on that night.
To do that, he needs to get his hand raised when facing Jo Nattawut in the main event of ONE Friday Fights 81 on September 27.
In a recent interview with ONE Championship ahead of fight night, the kickboxing specialist spoke about what is on the line for him in this fight:
"If I can win this fight impressively, I'm pretty sure that I'll get a shot for the Muay Thai world title."
Superbon will be tested in this fight
In order to earn his next title shot, Superbon will need to take it away from Jo Nattawut which won't be an easy task.
'Smokin' Jo has fought tooth and nail with Tawanchai in two previous meetings where he was able to push the champion right to the limit.
His record does not represent just how skilled Nattawut is and that's something that his opponent cannot take for granted on September 27.
In particular, his boxing skills will be an interesting challenge for the interim kickboxing king.
The two elite Thai strikers will clash for the first time and the next title shot could be on the line for both men.
