Jo Nattawut shares his biggest takeaway from his previous fight against Superbon

Speaking about his defeat to Superbon, the Thai Top Team representative has shared the biggest lesson he learned that will make him a better fighter moving forward in his pro career.

According to Jo Nattawut, he should have had a fast start against the reigning ONE featherweight kickboxing world champion. He shared this during his discussion with the promotion, where he explained:

"When I look back at every fight, no matter what the result is, I always learn lessons that I can use to improve myself. The last fight I lost to Superbon, I have to admit that he prepared well and started the game faster than I expected, while I was a bit slow to warm up. This is a lesson for me that I should have started the game faster. I can't just stand there and watch him attacking me."
