Anissa Meksen says "strong" Kana Morimoto doesn't have much to offer: "She has good hands, but no more"

French-Algerian striking queen Anissa Meksen thinks Kana Morimoto is nothing but a one-trick pony.

'C18' has done her homework on the debuting Japanese sensation ahead of their atomweight kickboxing battle at ONE Friday Fights 92 on Dec. 20 inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

From there, the multi-time world champion doesn't see herself being at the mercy of anything the former K-1 queen brings to the table.

Speaking at the official ONE Friday Fights 92 virtual press conference, Anissa Meksen shared:

"She is a strong opponent. She has good hands, but no more."

Watch the full press conference with Anissa Meksen and Kana Morimoto below:

The Korean Tiger Studios athlete hopes to finally turn her fortunes around after slumping to a pair of losses on the global stage.

The 36-year-old was beaten by Phetjeeja Lukjaoporongtom in their ONE interim atomweight kickboxing world title contest at ONE Friday Fights 46.

This past November at ONE 169, her world title dreams hit another stumble as Jackie Buntan outpointed her on the scorecards after a five-round thriller to claim the inaugural strawweight kickboxing crown.

Find out if she can return to winning ways by tuning in to ONE Friday Fights 92, available live and for free on the ONE Championship YouTube channel, the ONE Super App, and at watch.onefc.com.

Kana Morimoto suggests win over Anissa Meksen will earn her a shot at gold

On the flip side, Kana Morimoto hopes to make a statement immediately and walk into the world title picture against divisional queen 'The Queen' Phetjeeja Lukjaoporongtom.

In the same presser, 'Krusher Queen' had this to say on her next goal in the promotion after ONE Friday Fights 92:

"If I show the crowd that it's a clear win this Friday against Anissa Meksen, and it also depends on Chatri, but if it's a clear win, then the next fight could be a title shot, and I will be preparing for it."
