Thai sensation Prajanchai PK Saenchai is ready to make a go at a second world title when he takes on Jonathan Di Bella for the vacant ONE strawweight kickboxing world title this week.

The two will battle it out in the headlining match at ONE Friday Fights 68 on June 28 at the Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

Prajanchai is out to add the kickboxing gold to the strawweight Muay Thai championship title already in his possession.

In an interview with ONE Championship, the 29-year-old Bangkok native expressed his readiness for his showdown against Di Bella, anchoring his attack on the accuracy and power of his strikes.

He said:

"And in terms of boxing, it's all about an opening, and then I will see if I want to trade hands with Jonathan Di Bella. But I definitely want to focus on the accuracy and the power."

ONE Friday Fights 68 will see Di Bella and Prajanchai finally touch gloves after their scheduled title clash back in April was canceled after the Canadian-Italian fighter missed the hydration levels during weigh-ins. That led to him being stripped of the championship belt in the process.

Prajanchai, meanwhile, is seeking to make it back-to-back title conquests after knocking out Italian Joseph Lasiri in the opening round of their unification match last December to become the undisputed strawweight Muay Thai world champion.
