Where does Stamp Fairtex stand in her quest to dominate three sports in ONE?
Stamp challenges for ONE’s interim women’s atomweight MMA world title against Seo Hee Ham at ONE Fight Night 14.
Stamp Fairtex (10-2) is looking to make history in ONE Championship at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on September 29.
With a victory over Seo Hee Ham (26-8) in the ONE Fight Night 14 on Prime Video headliner, the Thai megastar would bag the ONE interim women’s atomweight MMA world title and become the first athlete to claim world titles in three disciplines.
Stamp has made no secret of her desire to reign over three sports simultaneously, and before she locks horns with the surging South Korean contender, we take stock of where she stands in each division.
ONE women’s atomweight MMA
The world title currently in Stamp’s sights is the interim women’s atomweight MMA strap.
With the continued absence of divisional queen Angela Lee, Stamp and Ham have justifiably been chosen to compete for the interim crown, and the Thai superstar will grab her chance at gold with both hands.
After a 75-fight muay Thai career, Stamp made her ONE debut under MMA rules in 2018 and scored a highlight-reel head kick knockout of Rahi Shinde.
The top-ranked divisional contender is now a purple belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and has gone on to amass an impressive 10-2 record, which includes a failed challenge of Lee’s world title in March 2022.
ONE Women’s Atomweight Kickboxing
Stamp bagged the ONE women’s atomweight kickboxing world title in just her second fight under the ONE banner with a unanimous decision victory over inaugural titleholder Chuang Kai Ting in 2018.
She dropped the world title in a split-decision defeat to American legend Janet Todd at “ONE: King of the Jungle” in February 2020 and didn’t return to the kickboxing realm until January 2023.
Stamp stepped into action against fellow Thai star Anna “Supergirl” Jaroonsak at ONE Fight Night 6 and outworked her compatriot over three rounds to take out a split-decision win and bank a $50,000 performance bonus for her efforts.
If nothing else, the victory ensured she kept her kickboxing tools sharp and the door open for another meeting with Todd, who still reigns over the atomweight kickboxing division.
ONE Women’s Atomweight Muay Thai
Just four months on from her atomweight kickboxing title win in 2018, Stamp defeated Todd by unanimous decision to add the ONE women’s atomweight muay Thai world title to her collection and establish herself as a two-sport world champion in the world’s largest martial arts organization.
The 64-17 striker held the strap until 2020, when she fell to Brazilian star Allycia Hellen Rodrigues by majority decision after a grueling five-round battle.
Stamp is yet to return to the sport since that defeat, but with Rodrigues still at the top of the division, a rematch wouldn’t be beyond the realm of possibility in the near future.
