Aung La N Sang confident that he can knock out Yushin Okami

Aung La N Sang is all set to fight Yushin Okami at ONE 163. The fight of the veterans has already captured the attention of MMA fans and the stakes are high for both fighters.

Aung La is coming into the fight on the back of his loss to Vitaly Bigdash and will be looking to get back to winning ways. This will be important for The Burmese Python as a win could take him closer to another shot at the ONE Middleweight title.

As for Okami, he secured a win over Agilan Thani in his last fight and will have the opportunity to extend his winning run. He has been on a slow run since joining ONE Championship as he is 1-2 in the promotion currently. He had suffered losses to Kiamrian Abbasov and James Nakashima earlier before winning against Thani.

Speaking in an interview with MMA Super Fan, Aung La noted that he is confident about his skills and that he can knock out Okami if he wants to.

“If I’m on point and I’m sharp it’s gonna be [good]. I’ve prepared myself well enough and I don’t think there’s anything that he’s gonna do to me that I haven’t seen in the ring. I think if I touch him he’s gonna go down, it’s just a matter of me being able to land my shots,” Aung La said.
