Superbon promises to avenge 2023 loss to Tawanchai at ONE 170 

By BJPENN.COM Staff - January 19, 2025

For reigning ONE Featherweight Kickboxing World Champion Superbon, 2025 starts off with an opportunity for vindication.   

Superbon

The Thai megastar challenges ONE featherweight Muay Thai king Tawanchai PK Saenchai in ONE 170’s main event this Friday, January 24, inside Bangkok, Thailand’s Impact Arena. 

Tawanchai prevailed when the duo last clashed at ONE Friday Fights 46 in December 2023. There, the phenom outstruck Superbon across five rounds to retain his crown. In spite of that defeat, Superbon has never let go of the belief that he can defeat his compatriot. One year on, he insists he can turn the tide.

“Since the previous fight [with Tawanchai] to today, it’s been a year I’ve been in training,” he said.  

“My stamina and power have improved. My skills have been better and more precise. I can feel that this fight is going to be very different.” 

Superbon dreaming of two-sport glory in ONE Championship

Having been recently reunited with the ONE Featherweight Kickboxing World Championship, Superbon feels a need to lace his other shoulder with a second World Title. 

ONE 170 will mark his second attempt at winning the ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Title. The Thai superstar believes reaching the mountain top in “the art of eight limbs” would tick off a bucket list item.  

Right now, Tawanchai is standing in the way of his dreams, and Superbon feels this isn’t just something he can do. It’s something he must do.  

“Today, ONE Championship is the world’s biggest Muay Thai promotion. Its championship is the most prestigious. I need to prove that I’m the best Muay Thai World Champion,” Superbon said. 

“The highest goal in my life is being a champion of two sports, being the number-one striker. That’s my main goal. Tawanchai is holding a belt, and I’ll take down any top contenders so that I can reign at the top and reach the high point of my career.”
