ONE Fight Night 7: Lineker vs. Andrade II Pre-Event Interviews Best Quotes

February 16, 2023 – Bangkok, Thailand: ONE Championship™ (ONE) held pre-event interviews featuring athletes competing at ONE Fight Night 7: Lineker vs. Andrade II. Athletes answered a series of questions ahead of their highly anticipated matchups.

Fabricio Andrade, #1-ranked bantamweight MMA contender:

“I’ve seen everything from [John Lineker], but I don’t think he will perform the same. I think he will put on an even better performance this time.”

“This camp was much more enjoyable than the last one. I think before the last fight I put a lot of pressure [on myself]… Ahead of this one, I already know I’m the number one bantamweight in the world. I’m coming to the fight as a champion, and to finish what I started in the first fight.”

“If he comes to fight, I’ll knock him out in the first round. But we saw in the last fight he tried to wrestle with me, something we had agreed not to do… I’m just going to be patient, I’ll be ready to knock him out at any second in the fight.”

“I don’t believe he thinks he can win this fight. If he does, he’s delusional.”

“It must be embarrassing for Lineker, he doesn’t show up to the interview. Even in our last interview, it seemed like he was embarrassed. He doesn’t want to be in this position. I’m not mad or anything, I just think it’s funny he didn’t show up.”

“After I hit [John Lineker] with the first knee, it was over. He was about to throw up, his ribs or something were hurt. He was not coming back from that. And now the guy is talking nonsense, he’s not showing up, I don’t know what’s happening with him right now.”

Tawanchai PK.Saenchai, ONE Featherweight Muay Thai World Champion:

“The strengths of Jamal is that he is a heavy hitter and his footwork is excellent. But I have already prepared myself to take care of this, so let’s see what happens in the ring.”

“My ultimate weapon, I’d rather not say. I would rather you guys watch me in the fight, you’ll see.”

Jamal Yusupov, #2-ranked featherweight Muay Thai contender:

“He’s fighting in his hometown, he has the belt, I think there’s more pressure on him than me.”
