Superbon plans on beating Jo Nattawut and taking his place in Atlanta as gift to Trainer Gae: “I want to bring my trainer to the US”

ONE interim featherweight kickboxing world champion and current first-ranked featherweight Muay Thai contender Superbon of Thailand wants to make Trainer Gae's dreams come true.

Superbon has had a legendary relationship with longtime coach and mentor Trainer Gae, as the two have worked together for years at the peak of the Thai superstar's career, especially in ONE Championship.

This weekend, no.1-ranked featherweight Muay Thai contender Superbon is set to face no.2-ranked 'Smokin' Jo Nattawut in Bangkok. And if he's victorious, Superbon believes he may be able to steal Nattawut's spot opposite reigning featherweight Muay Thai king Tawanchai PK Saenchai in Atlanta.

Tawanchai is scheduled to defend his belt against Nattawut at ONE 169 at the State Farm Arena.

Speaking to the South China Morning Post in a recent interview, Superbon says he wants to beat Nattawut and bring Trainer Gae to the U.S.

The 34-year-old Thai icon said:

"I have never been to Atlanta before, but I have been to a lot of places in America. But one thing I want to do is to bring my trainer to the US. Trainer Gae has said he wanted to go to the US for a long time, so if I have a chance there, I’m gonna bring him there. I’m gonna make his dream a success."
