Although he came up short of successfully defending the ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title against Superlek Kiatmoo9 in the main event of ONE 168: Denver on Sept. 6 in front of the Ball Arena crowd in Colorado, Jonathan Haggerty is still grateful for the support and opportunities he's still receiving.

The reigning ONE bantamweight kickboxing world champion showed his gratitude in a recent Instagram post, where he posted three photos of his fight against Superlek and penned the caption:

"Main event - sold out stadium. Man I am so grateful for such opportunities! Thank you @onechampionship @yodchatri #Getbacktime #Dontcountmeout Thank you all for your kind words & support this all week ❤️"

Apart from the support he is receiving from his loved ones, teammates and close circle, 'The General' also found solace from his fans, particularly from users @shanon_courtenay, @shanefazen, aofz_scouseth, @duragszdarkroast, @stanmartin, and @red_forest_studio_llc, who commented:
