"Awesome to be called out by a legend" - Thanh Le honored by idea of possibly fighting Superbon under mixed rules

Superbon Singha Mawynn, the ONE featherweight kickboxing champion, is looking to add more titles to his name. However, right now, he does not want to jump up in weight to challenge for more belts in kickboxing. Instead, he would rather mix it up with champions from other sports such as MMA and Muay Thai.

In a recent interview with the South China Morning Post (SCMP), Superbon called out ONE featherweight MMA world champion Thanh Le:

"I want to have three [championship belts]... I try to go to MMA after Muay Thai... Maybe we can go with mixed rules, like Rodtang... It should be fun... It would be the featherweight champion [Thanh Le]."

Not long ago, Thanh Le discussed the kickboxing champion ahead of his ONE X title defense. In an interview with Calf Kick Sports, Le was all praise for the Thai fighter:

"He's an expert... Let's just say that dude's good everywhere... He's just so good, I look up to him."

Superbon seeking more titles

Superbon has set his sights on capturing more titles in other combat sports. The kickboxer wants to add Muay Thai and MMA championships to his collection.

So, does he not want to gain more titles in kickboxing by changing weight classes? For instance, what about challenging reigning lightweight champion Regian Eersel?

The 31-year-old explained that the size advantage for Eersel would be too much to overcome:

"I think that he's too big for me... I could not [challenge] him in power because he would be 77 [kg]. I think it [would] be hard to beat him because he's very big [compared] to me... He's longer, he's a tall guy, and he's tough, [with] good skill."

Next up for the champion is Chingiz Allazov, who just won the featherweight kickboxing Grand Prix. Afterwards, if he wants to fight in Muay Thai, he will possibly be looking at featherweight champion Petchmorakot Petchyindee. If the Thai fighter wants an MMA challenge, it will likely be against the person he's already called out – Thanh Le.
