Nicolas and Eersel will face each other for the third time inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. Ahead of their trilogy match, Nicolas caught up with veteran journalist Nick Atkin for an interview and talked about his chances against the Surinamese superstar:

"My team is there, everybody's there. Everybody is very confident about my fight and let's just do it. I have to check the weight, after that, do my job."

'Barboza' will be the only one who is going to be eligible to win the ONE lightweight kickboxing world title after 'The Immortal' failed his hydration test during the official weigh-ins.

The Frenchman looks to reclaim the 26-pound golden belt and score another win over Eersel, which he pulled off last year at ONE Fight Night 21 with a unanimous decision nod from the judges.

"I have nothing against Eersel. He's in my way, and I just want to take the belt. I just want the belt. I'm ready for five rounds against him, but I'm ready to put him out, too."
