Nat “Wondergirl” Jaroonsak is getting a short-notice replacement in her match this weekend. 

The Thai star was slated to face Brazil’s Dayane Cardoso in a mixed rules super-fight at ONE Fight Night 19: Haggerty vs Lobo this Friday, February 16, inside the iconic Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand. 

However, Cardoso is out due to undisclosed reasons, and a new challenger has stepped up in her place.

Nat Jaroonsak is to compete in the strawweight division next

“Wondergirl” will now be competing in a strawweight Muay Thai contest opposite promotional newcomer Martyna Kierczynska.

The 21-year-old hails from Poland and carries an impressive resume deserving of competing with the best strikers on the planet today. She has won multiple Muay Thai tournaments, including the WMC Pro World Championships, the World Combat Games, and the European Games. 

Securing a win in her debut against Jaroonsak inside a historic venue will certainly vault her star into the next level. Despite being a short-notice replacement, Kierczynska may still be fighting on even ground.
