Nong-O says fans can expect a high IQ battle between him and Kongthoranee: “A confrontation between technical fighters”

Former ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world champion and Thai legend Nong-O Hama is getting ready to face off against a young firecracker in Kongthoranee Sor Sommai this weekend when he makes his flyweight debut in the world's largest martial arts organization.

Nong-O is moving down a weight class and will be looking to position himself for the vacant ONE flyweight Muay Thai world title. But to do that, he has to get past the much younger Kongthoranee, which is of course, no small task.

Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Nong-O Hama talked about fighting Kongthoranee and how he thinks the action could play out.

The 38-year-old Evolve MMA and Hama Muay Thai gym representative said:

"This fight is a confrontation between technical fighters. We will have to wait and see who will fall into whose game. But if I see an opening, I will go for the KO."

Needless to say, fans can't wait to see the legendary Nong-O Hama back in action in a few days.
