Luke Lessei plans to ‘whoop’ Jo Nattawut

“All you chumps are gonna bawl when I whoop him.”
It’ll be easier said than done for Luke Lessei to emerge victorious at ONE Fight Night 17. ‘Smokin’ Jo Nattawut holds a 3-1 promotional Muay Thai record, with his lone loss being against former ONE featherweight Muay Thai world title challenger Jamal Yusupov. Nattawut will hope to get back on track by taking out the American.
