Kulabdam Sor Jor Piek Uthai won't make the same mistake as others before him, and that's to underestimate John Lineker. The former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion made the transition to 'the art of eight limbs' last year, knocking out Asa Ten Pow and Alexey Balyko in impressive fashion as a Muay Thai fighter.
Kulabdam says he respects Lineker as an opponent, and will not be taking the Brazilian star lightly. Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Kulabdam admitted to being a little worried about facing Lineker's concussive knockout power in the ring.
'Left Meteorite' said:
