"155 does have the most killers" - Luke Lessei honored to test himself against world-class talent in the featherweight Muay Thai ranks

ONE Championship has built a strong roster of talent across its many combat sports offerings. However, Luke Lessei thinks the featherweight Muay Thai division is the promotion's most stacked division.

The 28-year-old is set to welcome Cody Jerome to the promotion at ONE Fight Night 27 on Friday, Jan. 10, inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

In an interview with the Bangkok Post ahead of their 155-pound Muay Thai clash, Lessei talked about ONE's Muay Thai ranks, saying:

"It's interesting to have such a deep division. I think 155 does have the most killers in it in the Muay Thai divisions in ONE. I think any opponent is worthy of an amazing fight. It's not like I only need to be fighting the rematches or I only need to be fighting title contenders. I get to display my skills against any of these highly skilled athletes."

Check out the entire interview below:

The Dubuque Martial Arts Group affiliate earned his first win in ONE last February following an unforgettable barnburner with Eddie Abasolo at ONE Fight Night 19.

Lessei wanted to build on his momentum by defeating Bampara Kouyate in July, but the French star ended his night via TKO in the third round.

ONE Fight Night 27 will air live and free to all Prime Video subscribers in the United States and Canada.
