“It gives me extra motivation” - Kulabdam believes hard-earned victory over John Lineker pushes him to bigger matches

Two-time Lumpinee Stadium Muay Thai world champion 'Left Meteorite' Kulabdam Sor Jor Piek Uthai of Thailand is excited for what the future holds.

After a stellar performance against former ONE bantamweight MMA world champion 'Hands of Stone' John Lineker last weekend at ONE Fight Night 27: Tang vs. Abdullaev on Prime Video, the Thai star is looking forward to bigger and better fights.

Speaking to the Bangkok Post in a recent post-fight interview, Kulabdam said:

"Very happy. That’s why it gives me extra motivation to do what I did today, because I feel that this kind of opportunity doesn’t come by easily."

Kulabdam survived an early first-round knockdown to dominate the fight and win via unanimous decision on the judges' scorecards.

ONE Fight Night 27: Tang vs. Abdullaev on Prime Video was broadcast live from the historic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand last Saturday, January 11. Fans in the United States and Canada can catch a replay of all the action on-demand via Amazon Prime Video.
