“I’m motivated and excited to get going” - Jonathan Haggerty buzzing for Superlek rematch this September

Jonathan Haggerty is buzzing about his upcoming clash with Superlek.

After delivering an early Fight of the Year contender against 'Demolition Man' Felipe Lobo at ONE Fight Night 19, 'The General' will step back inside the Circle on Friday, September 6 for perhaps his toughest test yet under the ONE Championship banner.

Emanating from Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado, ONE 168 will see the two-sport titleholder put his ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world champion on the line against Superlek.

Having come up short against 'The Kicking Machine' during a 2018 clash in the UK, Jonathan Haggerty is ready to jump right back into training camp to prepare himself for an opportunity at redemption against one of Muay Thai's most dynamic strikers.

"I'm excited to be back and most of all I'm excited to be back in training camp just due to the upcoming fight that's coming up," Haggerty told Sportskeeda MMA. "I'm motivated and excited to get going."
