Yuki Yoza has grand designs on taking over ONE Championship as the promotion's best kickboxer. The Japanese knockout artist is widely considered one of the top pound-for-pound strikers in the world, having dominated the regional circuit in Japan before taking the K-1 lightweight belt.
But after signing on to join the world's largest martial arts organization in recent weeks, Yoza says he's got some potential opponents he wants to face in ONE Championship.
One of them is former bantamweight Muay Thai king and reigning flyweight kickboxing world champion 'The Kicking Machine' Superlek Kiatmoo9.
Speaking to the South China Morning Post in a recent interview, Yoza dropped Superlek's name as one of his dream fights in ONE.

He said:
"Superlek is a legend. It would be an honor to face him."
Needless to say, Yoza is definitely on the fast track to greatness, and should he emerge victorious in his ONE Championship debut, it would send a very clear message that he's not messing around. A bout with Superlek could be in the offing soon enough.
