Scottish slugger "King of the North" Nico Carrillo has already conquered Muay Thai on the grandest stage of martial arts. At ONE Fight Night 46: Hemetsberger vs. Diachkova on Prime Video, he takes his first step toward doing the same in kickboxing.
The ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Champion will temporarily put the four-ounce gloves aside to open his kickboxing account against Chinese newcomer Zhou Jiaqiang in U.S. primetime this Friday, August 14, from Bangkok's iconic Lumpinee Stadium.
The timing of this fight arrives alongside a major shift for the Glaswegian. Carrillo was recently elevated from interim **** leholder to undisputed divisional king, news that would understandably shift most fighters' focus toward celebration.
Not so for "King of the North," who insists the achievement changes absolutely nothing about how he is approaching this featherweight kickboxing battle on Friday.
