Thanh Le and Bobby Moffett Hoping To Fight Kevin Aguilar Next
In an interview with MMA Junkie, both Thanh Le and Bobby Moffett spoke about their interim featherweight title fight at LFA 31 tonight, and their hopes to face Kevin Aguilar to unify the belts. Here are highlights:
Le on the interim title fight: “LFA, they wanted to put in the interim title so we could battle for it since Aguilar is sidelined. Whenever (Aguilar) is healthy, the winner comes out of this fight and is going to be able to merge those two together and take the undisputed title. I’m excited for that.”
Moffett on how the fight will go: “I’m fairly confident in how this fight’s going to go. I’m prepared for him to move around the entire time, or strike me. I’m prepared for him to do weird things. I just feel different. I’m a different person than who I was two years ago. I think he’s going to get hit a lot. I think he’s going to be surprised by my range. … I’ve been working a lot on using my range and my punches and I’m very confident.”
Le on Moffett’s skills: “He’s a great competitor, strong fighter, strong skills on the ground. We’ll see who will be able to implement their game plan the best. … Obviously we think it’s going to go out way, so we’re excited for that to play out.”
