Maaaring wala na sa ONE Lightweight Grand Prix si Honorio “The Rock” Banario pero hindi siya titigil na maging isang World Champion.

Ngayon ay makakaharap ni Banario si “Crazy Dog” Dae Sung Park ng South Korea sa isang lightweight showdown sa ONE: DAWN OF HEROES sa Agosto 2 sa Mall of Asia Arena, Manila Philippines.

“I am so focused in winning in Manila because I know a lot of things can happen after that night,” sabi ni Banario.

“We all know that the Grand Prix is not done yet, so maybe the winner of our match can go on and challenge Lee while he’s waiting for the winner of the Grand Prix,” sabi niya.

Naniniwala si Banario na ang laban niya kay Lee na magiging maganda ang laban nila.

“For sure that will be a very good fight. If that happens, he’ll find out that I’m different from all the people that he’s faced,” sabi ni Banario. “I’ll do everything to get that second World Title.”

Si Park ay kagagaling lang sa isang TKO victory laban kay Kimihiro Eto sa ONE: MASTERS OF DESTINY nitong Hulyo 12.

“Happy to say that I am 100 percent ready both mentally and physically. Now we’re down to the polishing of our game plan and staying healthy until fight night,” sabi ni Banario.

“As I’ve said, this is a big fight for me because this could be the way for me to slither into a World Title shot.”
