During his pre-fight interview with Fightlore, Anane reiterated his desire to avenge his loss to Superlek and become the undisputed king of the weight class, as he proclaimed:

Nabil Anane thanks Superlek for giving him an early reality check on his professional career

Anane has no regrets about his loss to Superlek almost two years ago because according to him, it allowed him to improve his skills and made him a better fighter overall.

The 20-year-old said that he was grateful for it, as he told Fightlore in a recent interview:

"It's good that I've learned that early. So when you learn something early, you can overcome it quicker than if you learn it later on. If I didn't have the lesson, maybe I wouldn't have what I have today. That was a great lesson."
