'The Angel Warrior' Panpayak Jitmuangnon will be banking on his experience and ability to read his opponent's game when he takes to the ONE Circle in his next outing.

It doesn't mean that he is unprepared to smash his way through his second win of the year, though.

The 249-win veteran is locked in for a flyweight Muay Thai clash against undefeated Russian knockout artist Egor Bikrev at ONE Friday Fights 92 on December 20.

The Lumpinee and Rajadamnern Stadium Muay Thai world champion has fought the very best of the best in his career, and with almost 300 fights in his resume, he's gonna take a seat back and see how things unfold on fight night in Bangkok, Thailand.

Speaking to ONE Championship on his strategy for this fight, Panpayak told ONE Championship in a pre-fight interview:

"I don't have a clear game plan because I'm going to figure it out in the ring."

The Jitmuangnon Gym athlete heads into this clash after making a victorious return to the promotion at ONE Friday Fights 83 this past October.

'The Angel Warrior' put out a trademark display to get his hand raised against Romanian knockout machine Silviu Vitez, and he hopes to make it two victories in as many appearances this year at ONE Friday Fights 92.

Though he looked at his best in his long-awaited return earlier this year, Panpayak concedes he struggled with a couple of things during the fight.

He touched on this during the ONE Friday Fights 92 virtual press conference on Wednesday, saying:

"During the third round, I didn't have the strength or power to fight back."

With ring rust not a factor anymore, though, he should hit his stride with ease to come out on top in his second fight of the year.
