"It’s true that there are so many more athletes way better than me. But now I’m only focused on Haggerty."

Superlek is one of the most talented strikers on the ONE Championship roster. And the flyweight superstar is moving up to bantamweight for his next fight.

Naturally, many fans worry about how Superlek is going to manage the weight differential.

'The Kicking Machine' said:

"I got people with knowledge in sports science who are coming to help me with that."

With all bases covered, it appears Superlek is getting himself primed and ready to deliver the goods. With the ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title up for grabs, and a chance at two-division, two-sport glory, Superlek vows to enter this fight in prime condition and to put on the performance of a lifetime.
