“Thai people always love combat sports. I want them to come to Lumpinee stadium until there is no space left. Because every time I hit an opponent and hear the cheering noise from the fans, it makes my spirits high and eager to go on and on and on. And I can perform better, too. The greater the audience the better I perform.”
