Jaosuayai managing his expectations despite ranking implications against Nakrob: "I don’t want to pressure myself”

With a win at ONE Fight Night 32, Jaosuayai could end up with a number next to his name. Emanating from the legendary Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, Jaosuayai is set to square off with Nakrob Fairtex in a flyweight Muay Thai clash that could carry major title implications.

With Nakrob currently sitting as the fifth-ranked contender in the division, Jaosuayai finds himself with a big opportunity to establish himself as a legitimate threat.

But instead of getting excited about what could be, he's choosing to temper his expectations and focus on the most important thing—winning the fight.

Speaking in an interview with Nick Atkin, Jaosuayai said:

"I think it would be great if I could win against Nakrob, and then I could just get myself into the rankings…that would be amazing...But I don’t really have such hope because it's a debut fight."

He went on to add:

"It's not like I want to fight, and I want to get straight into the rankings. I don’t want to pressure myself like that. But if it happens, great."

Jaosuayai reveals Nakrob Fairtex's "most dangerous" quality

Jaosuayai goes into ONE Fight Night 32 riding an impressive four-fight win streak, including highlight-reel finishes against Puengluang, Yodlekpet, and Denis Puric.

Meanwhile, Nakrob has put together an equally impressive run in ONE, building a 10-2 record and coming out on top in six of his last seven fights.

Sharing his take on Nakrob's "most dangerous" quality, Jaosuayai told ONE Championship:

"Nakrob’s most dangerous quality, in my opinion, is he comes forward with a game plan to pressure his opponents. He trades shots, he walks through everything, and he’s really durable. I think that’s pretty much his greatest strength, and it’s the scariest thing about him."

ONE Fight Night 32 will air live on ONE Championship’s YouTube channel, the ONE Super App, and watch.onefc.com on Friday, June 6.
