Freddie Haggerty continues to move in the right direction to become a potential world champion. Last weekend, he recorded his second consecutive knockout victory in ONE Championship at ONE Friday Fights 72.

Haggerty scored a buzzer-beater knockout against Kaichon Sor Yingcharoenkarnchang in front of the packed Lumpinee Stadium crowd in Bangkok, Thailand.

His winning moment alongside the side-by-side reaction of his older brother, Jonathan Haggerty, who reigns as the two-sport ONE bantamweight world champion, was recently posted by the promotion on Instagram, and they captioned it with:

"Sibling success 💪🔥 Can Jonathan Haggerty continue the siblings' winning streak by successfully defending his bantamweight Muay Thai strap against Superlek at ONE 168: Denver? @freddiehaggerty_ @jhaggerty_"

Jonathan Haggerty shifts his full focus to world title clash at ONE 168: Denver

Now that his younger brother's fight is over and ended in a win, 'The General' will shift his focus back to preparing for the defense of his ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world title against ONE flyweight kickboxing world champion Superlek Kiatmoo9 on September 6 at ONE 168: Denver.

Haggerty and Superlek will face each other for the second time in their careers, and the former is looking to even their head-to-head score after the latter drew first blood in their first meeting in 2018 at YOKKAO.

Haggerty, who also holds the ONE bantamweight kickboxing world title, is on a six-fight win streak, which dates back to December 2020.

ONE 168: Denver goes down at the Ball Arena at U.S. primetime on Sept. 6. Tickets for the event are available on Ticketmaster.
