ONE interim featherweight Muay Thai world champion Superbon has constantly treated ONE Championship fans to dazzling displays of striking excellence. Tayfun Ozcan experienced the Thai star's one-shot knockout power first-hand in June 2023 at ONE Fight Night 11.
'Turbine' pressured Superbon early in the hopes of landing a knockout blow. However, amidst a lightning-quick combo from the Dutch-Turkish star, the Thai hero countered with a head kick out of nowhere, sending Ozcan to sleep in round two.

This performance was a much-needed return to form for Superbon, who had just lost the ONE featherweight kickboxing world championship to Chingiz Allazov via knockout earlier that year.
After failing to dethrone ONE featherweight Muay Thai world champion Tawanchai PK Saenchai in Dec. 2023, Superbon won the ONE interim featherweight kickboxing world championship over longtime rival Marat Grigorian this past April in their long-awaited trilogy fight.
With him finally closing the book on his rivalry with Grigorian, Superbon will fight 'Smokin' Jo Nattawut under Muay Thai rules at ONE Friday Fights 81 on Sept. 27 inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
