'The Sniper' said:

"Maybe for me, I’ll go with the faster fighter, so I’ll go with Haggerty. Well, both are fast strikers, but I’ll go with Haggerty because he throws so many combinations, and he has really heavy hands. I think those are the advantages Haggerty has over Superlek."

Two-sport king 'The General' Jonathan Haggerty is set to defend his ONE bantamweight Muay Thai gold against flyweight kickboxing titleholder 'The Kicking Machine' Superlek Kiatmoo9.

The two lock horns at ONE 168: Denver, which broadcasts live from the Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado, on Friday, September 6.

Stephen Loman says Superlek won't have any issues at higher weight class: "It won't be a problem for him"

Filipino star 'The Sniper' Stephen Loman says Superlek Kiatmoo9 will fit right in at bantamweight when he takes on 'The General' Jonathan Haggerty for the Muay Thai gold at ONE 168: Denver.

He told Sportskeeda MMA:

"I think, Superlek already walks at a heavier weight than the flyweight limit. He’s also a tall fighter, so when he gains weight it won’t be a problem for him."
