“Everyone will see something new from me in the coming year,” pahayag ni Kingad.

“With everything that I learned about myself in 2019, the next year will be a chance for me to show how much I have grown. My personal goal is to win every match in order to become worthy of a World Title challenge soon,” aniya.

Tangan ni Kingad, nakapagtala ng tagumpay laban sa pamosong sina Reece McLaren, Senzo Ikeda atTatsumitsu Wada sa nakalipas na taon para makuha ang 13-2 career record.

“I learned a lot,” sambit Kingad.

“I was against top-caliber athletes who were able to make me realize some of my weaknesses, which I continuously work on to improve. The experience (of facing Johnson) was very exciting, and I was really happy because I was given a chance to be a part of (the ONE Flyweight World Grand Prix Championship).”

Sa kabila ng kabiguan sa pinakamalaking laban sa kanyang career, kontento si Kingad.

“I am very much satisfied with my performance, and I am really happy to have competed against such talented athletes. Not everyone can get a chance to compete against an in-his-prime DJ, but I was able to go toe-to-toe with him and push him for three rounds,” aniya.
