In a recent interview for this fight, Petchmorakot said, “Training in boxing has made me a better fighter overall. The way I train and I fight in boxing has [improved] my punching power. Learning the steps and the details used in the punches, overall it’s made me a better martial artist… I think [Vienot] is going to feel the pressure. This is a big fight in ONE Championship. So for sure, he’ll feel some pressure coming into the organization.”
The title challenger Vienot will be looking to rise to this challenge. In a pre-fight interview, he said, “I’ve arrived at ONE Championship with a lot of results. I’ve won a lot. I’ve won every circuit that I’ve participated in. That’s the story of how I got here. I’ve proven myself to everybody. I’m a winner.”

And according to [Lasiri’s] interviews in the past, he doesn’t want me to run, he wants me to exchange. I would love that, I would love to exchange in the middle of the Circle. Same as what he says.” And the Italian challenger responded that he was less than impressed with Prajanchai, “I wasn’t impressed by anything in [Prajanchai’s debut].
