‘Everyone’s Breakable’ – Selina Flores Targets Statement Finish Against Stamp Fairtex At ONE Fight Night 47
Multiple-time WBC Muay Thai World Champion Selina “Teep Queen” Flores made an immediate statement in her ONE Championship debut, and now she wants a signature win to match it.
The American striking sensation faces former three-sport ONE World Champion Stamp Fairtex in an important atomweight Muay Thai clash, which headlines the highly anticipated ONE Fight Night 47 on Prime Video card. The blockbuster event broadcasts live in U.S. primetime from Bangkok’s historic Lumpinee Stadium this Friday, September 4.
That night, Flores will look to extend her winning streak to six. The San Diego native cruised to a unanimous decision win over Marie “The Celtic Queen” McManamon in her promotional debut at ONE Fight Night 36.
That remarkable performance clearly caught the attention of the world’s largest martial arts organization. It did not take long for a big-fight offer to land in front of her, and even less time for her to accept it.
She recalled:
“My manager asked me if I wanted to fight Stamp, and I was just like, ‘Yes, absolutely!’ I was so excited.
“I want to have these opportunities to prove myself and continue to build my name in ONE. This fight is a great stepping stone for me to prove myself.”
Stamp’s rise has been there for all to see. The Thai superstar captured the ONE Women’s Atomweight Muay Thai World Title and ONE Women’s Atomweight Kickboxing World Title before completing a historic feat as the promotion’s first-ever three-sport World Champion by winning MMA gold.
An injury, arriving just months after she claimed the atomweight MMA crown, halted that momentum. Since returning, Stamp has traded wins and losses, and by her own admission, even her recent victory fell short of her usual standard.
That mixed run has done nothing to change what “Teep Queen” expects to see on fight night, though.
She said:
“I am expecting the best version of Stamp. Whether people think she’s better before or whatever, I don’t really care about that. I am preparing for the sharpest, best, quickest, and most technical version of Stamp.
“I’m preparing for that because that’s what I want. When I beat her, I don’t want excuses like, ‘She’s not the same Stamp.’ So I’m just hoping that she’s the best version of herself possible, because it’s going to be so much better for me.”
That same confidence carries over when the topic shifts to how she envisions this crucial encounter coming to an end.
Flores has spent hours reviewing her opponent’s recent footage, paying particular attention to specific exchanges where Stamp looked vulnerable.
What the multi-time Muay Thai World Champion found has left her believing she can execute a game plan no one else has managed against Stamp in Muay Thai.
The American star said:
“I can finish Stamp. I think Stamp’s human. Although she’s such a big star, she’s still human. There are still instances where she’s breaking.
“I saw it when she fought Kana. I saw it when she fought Cynthia. I’ve studied those fights endlessly. I’ve never been finished either, but I think that everyone’s breakable. It just takes the right set of skills, and I think I’m capable of doing that.”
Flores Eyes A Path To The Muay Thai Crown
As confident as Selina Flores sounds about finishing Stamp, the bigger picture always circles back to the one prize she has yet to claim.
The ONE Women’s Atomweight Muay Thai World Title, currently held by reigning queen Allycia Hellen Rodrigues, has been the driving force behind every decision the American standout has made since arriving in the promotion.
A win over a name as recognizable as Stamp’s would undeniably swing the momentum in her favor.
Flores continued:
“I did read in an article that said a win over Stamp could get me to the title right away, which I was happy to hear. So, every fight feels the same way. It feels like the most important fight, because I have to get past each person.
“Stamp is an amazing opportunity for me to build that case, simply for how big her name is. The ultimate goal is to get to the belt, and I’m trying to get to Allycia. So a win over Stamp is fantastic for getting my name out there.”
Beyond Friday, Flores has already started thinking about what comes next. World Title fights take time to materialize, and Rodrigues’ next opponent has not yet been announced.
For the Premier Fight & Fitness athlete, that simply means staying patient, building her case, and remaining ready to step up whenever that all-important call arrives.
She concluded:
“I know Allycia just signed a contract. I don’t know who she’s fighting. I don’t think they announced it yet, but yeah, that’s the goal, right?
“If I can step in, I’ll be ready to step in. But if it doesn’t happen until next year, then I’ll be ready the following year. It’ll give me more time to get even better for the title shot.”
