We are days away from ONE 167: Tawanchai vs Nattawut II, and before the stars see action this weekend, fans can get a chance to see them away from their element.
The official press conference for the event will be broadcast live from Thailand this Wednesday, June 5 at 4 a.m. ET (3 p.m. ICT), and will be immediately followed by the open workout.

The event will be hosted by ONE commentator Mitch Chilson with confirmed attendance of some of the main event protagonists, Tawanchai PK Saenchai and “Smokin’” Jo Nattawut.
Also gracing the event are Muay Thai megastar Rodtang “The Iron Man” Jitmuangnon, submission grappling kingpins Kade Ruotolo and Mikey “Darth Rigatoni” Musumeci, British legend Liam “Hitman” Harrison, and presumably their opponents on U.S. primetime this Friday, June 7 inside the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand.
It will be the last time that fans can ask their burning questions to the fighters in a public forum before they all lock horns at ONE 167.
While they have all answered questions about their upcoming bouts, the press conference will see them inside the same venue, which could trigger some interesting live responses.
The Fiery face-off between Tawanchai PK Saenchai and “Smokin’” Jo Nattawut
Both Tawanchai and “Smokin’” Jo have been respectful about facing each other, and they are confident that they can produce an even better performance compared to their first fight.

Meanwhile, Rodtang’s opponent, Denis “The Bosnian Menace” Puric, has been brash in his statements against the reigning Muay Thai king. It won’t be crazy to think that he will be even more hyped up when they are only across a table from each other.
“The Iron Man” has been playing it cool with his responses, but that might change now that fight night is just days away.
Fans should also watch out for the transformation of Musumeci, who is competing in a bantamweight submission grappling match this weekend against the last man to submit him – Gabriel Sousa.

British star Harrison will also be on the stage to answer questions about an upcoming fight for the first time in almost two years following a long battle with injuries.
Following the press conference, Tawanchai, Nattawut, Rodtang, and Puric will all appear in the open workout.
