Superlek Kiatmoo9 could see off the remainder of his fight camp for ONE 168: Denver alongside Muay Thai legend Liam Harrison in Leeds, England.
The ONE flyweight kickboxing world champion squares off against two-sport king Jonathan Haggerty for his bantamweight Muay Thai crown inside the Ball Arena on September 6. Harrison, on the other hand, returns on the same card in an all-legend showdown alongside Seksan Or Kwanmuang.
"I may join his fight camp before Denver," Superlek told ONE Championship recently.
"Liam has invited me to train with him and mentioned that he’s rooting for me to win against Haggerty.”

This isn't anything new for either superstar, though. The pair have spent time at each other's camp on numerous occasions.
Before joining ONE, 'The Kicking Machine' plied his trade across various promotions a couple of times in the United Kingdom. While he was there, the flyweight kickboxing kingpin typically shifted into gear alongside 'Hitman' at his Bad Company outfit in Leeds. The latter would even go out of his way to drive the Thai to his fight venue and take him for a meal afterward.
Meanwhile, Harrison, who made a name for himself competing at legendary Muay Thai stadiums in Thailand, shared the mats with the 28-year-old from the early days of his career. Like Harrison, the ONE world champion always ensured the veteran felt at home whenever he was down in his homeland.
Most recently, Harrison spent time with 'The Kicking Machine' during his fight camp for Rodtang last year. Now it appears that the pair could link-up once more as they prepare for their massive bouts at ONE 168: Denver.
Superlek sings praise for Harrison's high-octane style
Given the time they've spent with one another, Superlek and Harrison share a similar admiration for one another.
The Kiatmoo9 Gym representative, for his part, had this to say on 'Hitman's' ultra-aggressive approach in the same interview with the promotion:
"He has unique, interesting techniques. He is dangerous, amazing, and very versatile. He's aggressive and full of surprises as well."
The Thai warrior is out to secure his 11th straight win and gain two-sport world championship status when he faces Haggerty in 'The Mile High City'.
As for the English striker, he's all focused on punching his way back to the winner's column after being out of action for over two years following an injury he sustained to Nong-O Hama during their clash for gold at ONE on Prime Video 1 in August 2022.
