Kantharaj Agasa ready to showcase his skills

Last year after signing with ONE Championship, Kantharaj Agasa told MMA India that, he has been training well and is ready to showcase his skills against the top fighters in the division.

 I have always believed that if the training camp is good, then your self-confidence gets a boost automatically,” Agasa said.

 I believe in hard work. I am confident about my grappling skills and I don’t let go of anyone easily once I get my grip. It doesn’t matter if my opponent is a great striker, I always look for the takedown and finish it with ground-and-pound or submission.”

 That will be easier said than done against the likes of Johnson, Danny “The King” Kingad, Kairat “The Kazakh” Akhmetov, Yuya “Little Piranha” Wakamatsu, and Reece “Lightning” McLaren – the top five flyweights in a division ruled by ONE Flyweight World Champion Adriano “Mikinho” Moraes.

 ONE’s flyweight division has so many great superstars,” Kantharaj Agasa said. “I have faith in myself that if I have a good training camp before a bout, I can beat anyone.”
