Tawanchai PK Saenchai has confirmed he will face Superbon Singha Mawynn next, with ONE Championship considering three different big cities to host the Muay Thai super fight.

The ONE featherweight champ was set to defend his belt against Superbon on October 7 but the former kickboxing king withdrew injured.

Tawanchai instead ground out a decision against “Smokin’” Jo Nattawut in a three-round kickboxing fight at Lumpinee Stadium, and admitted he was not at his best.

“The next fight will be with Superbon,” Tawanchai said after his fight. “There has been a lot of changes there with the injuries.
