Petchtanong Petchfergus isn't worried about Nabil Anane's height advantage: "I have nothing to fear"
Most of Nabil Anane's opponents struggle to deal with his overwhelming height and reach advantage. Even Anane himself says that alone gives him a very good chance of beating any opponent.
But Petchtanong Petchfergus says it won't matter in their fight.
He told ONE Championship:
"When they offered me to fight against Nabil, I wasn't surprised. Because I see him as a typical fighter. There's nothing special about him except his height. If our weights are the same, I have nothing to fear."
