Stamp Fairtex made history when she became the first two-sport ONE World Champion. The Thai striker added the ONE Atomweight Muay Thai World Title to her ONE Atomweight Kickboxing World Title when she defeated Janet “JT” Todd in February.
She puts her Muay Thai belt on the line for the first time against Alma Juniku in a bid to cement her position at the top, and she feels she can overwhelm the challenger with pressure to get the win.
