Former ONE light heavyweight and middleweight MMA world champion Aung La N Sang may have his mind locked on the next chapter of his life, but he's still very much keen to dish out another vintage performance against a fellow finishing machine at ONE Fight Night 36.

'The Burmese Python' locks horns with the organization's ex-welterweight kingpin, Zebaztian Kadestam, in a middleweight MMA joust, live in U.S. primetime, this Friday, Oct. 3.

Ahead of his hotly anticipated return and his career swansong, the Kill Cliff FC athlete told ONE Championship that he expects nothing less than a war when he meets the Swedish destroyer inside the ring on fight night.

"He’s a good guy. I really like him, and I know he’s very good. And it will be a fun fight for the fans, right? We’re gonna bang, and we’re gonna put on a show," the Florida-based veteran said when asked about his thoughts on Kadestam's nature and fight style.

In the same interview with the organization, Aung La N Sang gave his thoughts on Kadestam's strengths and weaknesses.

While he believes the Swede's biggest flaw is on the canvas, 'The Burmese Python' said that he does not plan to take advantage there. Instead, he solely wants action to be contested on the feet.

“He’s good everywhere. His defense is good. His offense [is good], he can do everything. Maybe his grappling is his weakness. But I’m not grappling, so … we’re gonna have a show on our hands," the Myanmar fighter declared.
