The Colombian striker takes on fellow hard-hitter Sean Climaco in a flyweight Muay Thai tiff. This takes place at ONE 168: Denver, airing live from Ball Arena on September 6.
“Panda Kick” arrived in ONE Championship with a spotless 22-0 professional record, carrying with him a wave of hype that he has more than lived up to.
In his promotional debut this past May, he made an immediate impact by dismantling Kouta Omori in under 30 seconds.
Just weeks later, the 21-year-old showcased his durability and striking prowess once again, earning a hard-fought decision victory over Zafer Sayik.
As he gears up for his third assignment under the organization’s umbrella, Estupinan is brimming with confidence.
Estupinan has been vocal about his intentions. He predicts a spectacular outcome against Climaco, a Filipino-American sensation expected to have the home crowd firmly in his corner.
“He’ll fall quicker than Kouta Omori did in my debut. I’ll look to drop him within the first 10 to 15 seconds. He’ll be fighting at home, and people will be cheering him on, but I’m going after him,” Estupinan said.
With Climaco anticipated to have the entire venue behind him, Estupinan is apologizing in advance if he needs to shatter hearts come September.
“I’m ready for war, and I’m giving it my all. This will be a movie, and it’ll be crazy because I’m going to beat him in his own country,” he said.
“The entire world will be happy with my performance, and everyone will once again hear the name ‘Panda Kick.’”
Johan Estupinan to Sean Climaco: “You need to be scared”
Johan Estupinan wants nothing more than to improve his stature in the division, and he will not let Sean Climaco stand in his way.
“Make sure you’re ready because a train is about to steamroll you,” Estupinan said. “I’m focused and ready for war. You need to be scared because you’re standing in the way of my dreams and my career. I must take care of those who stand in my way.”
