Tang is on an impressive three-fight knockout win streak. After his most recent victory, he called out Le and said he was ready to kill him. The Vietnamese-American Le responded by saying that he hopes Tang will keep that same energy.

Le has put together an impressive win streak, with his last five fights being won by way of KO/TKO. Overall, his career has a win rate by knockout at an incredible 92%.

The 26-year-old Chinese-born knockout specialist feels that youth is on his side and will be a major advantage in this fight. He said:

"I think my biggest advantage over Thanh Le is that I'm younger than him. I've yet to reach my peak, and he's already old."

Thanh Le on Father Time

36-year-old Le says that age is just a number regarding his fighting skills. When the fight was announced, Le addressed concerns about his age in a press conference. He said:

“Physically and mentally I feel really good, and I think that’s going to be the downfall of a lot of people to come and try to take this belt. On paper I’m a little older, slower, might not be able to train as much. I’ve been doing this so long, maybe my body hurts. But we’ll step into the ring and we’ll see how slow and how things come out of this body.”

ONE 160 on August 26 is a must-watch for fight fans. Two ONE world titles will be on the line. The main event will see Ok Rae Yoon vs. Christian Lee, and the co-main event will feature knockout specialists Le and Tang Kai.

Shortly after ONE 160, fans will be treated to ONE's next event - ONE on Prime Video 1: Moraes vs. Johnson II. It will be broadcast live from the Singapore Indoor Stadium and airs on US primetime via Amazon Prime Video on August 26.
