Kana Morimoto equipped with ‘added knowledge’ from Superbon Training Camp to unsettle Anissa Meksen in Lumpinee war

Veteran Japanese fighter Kana Morimoto is coming in prepared for her ONE Championship debut this week, armed with added knowledge she received while training at Superbon Training Camp in Thailand in the lead-up.

'Krusher Queen' will be making her promotional debut at ONE Friday Fights 92: Sitthichai vs. Shadow on Dec. 20 at Bangkok's Lumpinee Stadium. She is going up against fellow seasoned fighter Anissa Meksen in a featured atomweight kickboxing clash.

To help her to have a winning debut, Kana and her team shored up their preparation by making a stop and working with the coaches at Thai superstar Superbon's training facility.

In an interview with ONE Championship, the former K-1 champion talked bout their decision to train at Superbon Training Camp and what it did in their preparation, saying:

"I'll have my usual corner team from Japan plus the Thai trainers. We're sharing information about sparring situations and movement patterns. The strategy part remains unchaged from before, but now with added knowledge from the Thai trainers."

Kana signed with ONE Championship earlier year following an illustrious career at K-1, where she compiled a 22-4 record since 2015. In the "Home of Martial Arts," she looks to enhance her legacy as a fighter further.

Out to frustrate her in her maiden ONE outing is Meksen, who is seeking to end her two-match slide, which was both world title matches.

ONE Friday Fights 92 will be available live via ONE Championship's official YouTube channel, the ONE Super App, and watch.onefc.com.

Kana Morimoto honored to have Anissa Meksen as her first opponent in ONE

Aware of what her opponent has achieved in her career, Kana Morimoto is honored to have drawn Anissa Meksen in her ONE Championship debut at ONE Friday Fights 92 on Dec. 20 in Thailand.

She shared this during the virtual press conference for the event, highlighting how she has a lot of respect for 'C18,' who, like her, was a decorated fighter prior to joining the promotion and how excited she is of locking horns with her.

The Japanese star said:

"First of all, I respect Anissa a lot. The fact that Chatri matched me up with Anissa on my debut fight, I'm very happy about that and also a little nervous. But it's more of excitement to fight her in my debut fight."

Meksen vs. Kana is one of four kickboxing matches on offer at ONE Friday Fights 92, which will be ONE Championship's last live offering for this year.
