Superlek Disclosed the Reason Behind Calling Out Jonathan Haggerty Alongwith His Target of Ruling the ONE Flyweight Kickboxing Division for a Prolonged Period

Superlek Kiatmoo9 turned in another beautiful performance this past Friday at ONE Fight Night 12, and he’s looking to continue showcasing his skills in ONE Championship. The ONE Flyweight Kickboxing World Champion annihilated Tagir Khalilov across two rounds to earn his third finish in a row on the global stage and his ninth straight win overall.

Superlek utilized more of his hands and elbows on this occasion, which proved to be just as deadly as his feet against the Russian slugger.

His aggression and pressure right from the opening bell paid off, and by the second round, “Samingpri” was running for dear life, which caused the referee to bring an end to the match. “The Kicking Machine” celebrated his victory with an interesting dance inside the ring, and he explained why in his post-fight interview.

“My plan was just to finish the fight by knockout or TKO, and it doesn’t matter. A knee route is ok, too. I just wanted to finish the fight beautifully and show the people the art of Muay Thai,” Superlek said. “That celebration truly came from the happiness that I felt in my heart. I was really relieved that I wasn’t a disappointment to any fans that have come to support me. I’m really happy that they are here or they’re watching on TV, and they could watch me being able to defeat the opponent like that.”

When it comes to what’s next for “The Kicking Machine” after this latest victory, plans may be up in the air. As the top contender in the ONE Flyweight Muay Thai division, he could confidently look to challenge current king Rodtang Jitmuangnon.

But he seems more interested in meeting newly minted ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion Jonathan Haggerty, having called him out after his win at ONE Friday Fights 22 last month.

“My plan is to keep my belt, keep being the champion of my division and also I would like more and more opportunities to be able to show people my Muay Thai skills or my martial arts skills,” Superlek said. “No, not at all for the revenge of Nong-O. I would like to face Haggerty because he’s a good fighter, and today he’s gotten stronger. He’s gotten tougher, so I would like to face him in the very best version of his.”
