“I’ve been working hard on myself” - Tawanchai is in constant pursuit of improvement as a fighter

Reigning ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Champion Tawanchai PK.Saenchai is making sure that he continues to evolve as a fighter with the end goal of maintaining his standing in his division and the sport.

Speaking to ONE Championship, the Thai striker disclosed that he is not one to rest on his laurels, and is working on every facet of his game to stay ahead of the competition.

Tawanchai said:

“Since I joined ONE, I’ve been working hard on myself. I know which parts of me need change. I’ve identified my strengths and what the fans like, then adjusted accordingly. I’d do anything to improve myself, to fill in any hole I may have.”

Such a mindset has paid dividends for the 23-year-old fighter in a huge way as it propelled him to win the featherweight Muay Thai gold last September over Petchmorakot Petchyindee by unanimous decision.

Tawanchai is set to make his first world title defense on February 24 at ONE Fight Night 7 on Prime Video against Turkey’s Jamal Yusupov. In the lead-up, he has maintained his astute work ethic and focus, aided by his team at P.K.Saenchai Muay Thai Gym.

The featherweight Muay Thai title clash is the co-main event at ONE Fight Night 7, which takes place at the iconic Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok and is aired live and for free on Prime Video for all Amazon subscribers across North America.
