“Unstoppable” Angela Lee returns to defend her ONE Women’s Atomweight World Championship at ONE X on Saturday, 26 March, against Stamp Fairtex – the winner of the ONE Women’s Atomweight World Grand Prix. 

In celebration of ONE Championship’s tenth anniversary, the event at the Singapore Indoor Stadium will highlight many of the organization’s most talented competitors. So, it’s only fitting that two of its most famous athletes go head-to-head that evening.

“Unstoppable” versus the Thai superstar is a bout that fans have been clamoring for over the last several years. With Stamp’s growing list of spectacular finishes, she is a worthy opponent for longtime champion Lee, and the Fairtex athlete isn’t concerned with how she gets the victory on the night, as long as she gets it. 

“When we’re in the Circle, anything can happen, and we don’t know how this fight will end. I will do my best to win. Whether I knock her out or not, winning is already enough for me,” Stamp said.

“I’ve never trained as hard as I have now. Angela Lee has it all. She’s a complete fighter, and a lot of my preparations have centered around improving my defense in all areas. I need to be well-prepared for this fight.”

How will Stamp Fairtex manage Angela Lee’s ground game?

Stamp holds an 8-1 MMA record and has scored victories in her last three fights, the most recent of which put her at the top of the atomweight rankings. Stamp submitted Ritu “The Indian Tigress” Phogat with an armbar in the final of the Grand Prix in late 2021, proving that she had successfully added a dangerous ground game to her Muay Thai and kickboxing prowess.

The 24-year-old sensation will be looking to utilize all her skills against Lee’s Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, wrestling, and infamous rubbery submission technique but is hoping to keep the action upright overall.

“The best strategy against the Twister is to not let it happen because once you’re in there, it’s very hard to defend against it. The best strategy is to bring her into my world and force her to fight my fight. I’m confident, but I would prefer to stick to striking, which I’m good at,” Stamp said.

Stepping into the Circle against an athlete with such a stellar reputation as “Unstoppable” would be a daunting task for any fighter, but the ONE Women’s Atomweight Grand Prix World Champion refuses to let her opponent intimidate her. Instead, she remains laser-focused on her ultimate goal.
