'The One' told the world's largest martial arts organization:
"I saw that he has, like, over 200 amateur fights, but those are probably against other young guys his age that he’s had all that experience against."
Climaco and Guluzada meet in a three-round bout next weekend.
The two lock horns at ONE Fight Night 31: Kongthoranee vs. Nong-O II on Prime Video, which will broadcast live in U.S. primetime from the iconic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand on Friday, May 2.

Sean Climaco banking on age and experience advantage against young Akif Guluzada: "I’ve been training a lot longer"
'The One' Sean Climaco believes his age and experience will be enough to get past Akif Guluzada when the two meet at ONE Fight Night 31 on Prime Video next weekend.
He told ONE Championship:
"I guess the advantage of age is I’ve been training with a lot of high-level guys here in the Bay Area, and I’ve been training a lot longer. I have experience and, yes, he’s young."
Needless to say, Climaco will be looking to put on a show, as he guns for his second straight victory in ONE Championship.
