Ham Seo Hee has won titles in various organizations around the globe, but she believes winning her upcoming fight will be the ultimate feather in her cap.
“Hamzzang” is set to face Stamp Fairtex for the ONE Interim Women’s Atomweight MMA World Championship in the main event of ONE Fight Night 14 on Friday, September 29, and the winner will become only the second woman to hold the prestigious belt since it was introduced seven years ago.

The South Korean veteran has fought all different kinds of fighters during her career that spans over a decade and a half, but she may be facing her toughest challenge yet in Stamp. A former two-sport World Champion, the Thai megastar has set her sights on an MMA World Title in the world’s largest martial arts organization for some time. In her quest to gain it, she won the ONE Women’s Atomweight World Grand Prix and even pushed longtime queen Angela Lee to the brink of defeat in March 2022.
Her brilliant performances, entertaining entrances, and bright personality have endeared her to fans worldwide, and she may be coming in as the favorite in this World Title matchup, which is not lost on Ham. “I can’t say who holds the advantage, but I maintain confidence against any opponent. I always aim for the finish and try to fight aggressively. However, I also consider the judges’ verdicts and make sure to prepare accordingly,” the 36-year-old told ONE Championship.

“It’s great if I get the finish, but even if I don’t, I enjoy being in the Circle and don’t mind spending more time there. I will always enjoy the fight. And I will always try my best, give it my all, and come out without any regrets.” Throughout the years, Ham has proven why she is one of the top female fighters in the world by claiming wins in every organization she has fought in. She is currently riding a nine-fight winning streak that dates back to 2016, with the last three coming in ONE.
