Elias Mahmoudi is coming to Bangkok to make a statement. On Friday, August 2, the Algerian striker returns to ONE Championship at ONE Fight Night 24 on Prime Video to take on Taiki Naito in a flyweight kickboxing contest. Whether it was Naito or anyone else, “The Sniper” was ready to sign on the dotted line.
“I didn’t choose him. He was offered to me and I accepted. I didn’t think anything special about him. He’s a good opponent like all Japanese people in general. I am really motivated for this fight against Naito, my goal is victory,” Mahmodi detailed to ONE.
