WATCH: How Fabricio Andrade literally fought for what he has achieved in his life and career

Fabricio Andrade’s fighting journey continues to be a major source of inspiration for fight fans across the world.

The charismatic ONE bantamweight MMA world champion had once gone through some rough times in his early life, after growing up in the dangerous streets of Fortaleza, Brazil.

But Andrade’s determination, self-belief, and the will to achieve his goals regardless of his situation, has pulled him out of the worst situations in his life. Today, we know him as one of the most resilient world champions that this generation has seen.

‘Wonder Boy’ is preparing to fight against ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world champion ‘The General’ Jonathan Haggerty for the vacant ONE kickboxing bantamweight world title at ONE Fight Night 16 on Prime Video. On that note, watch Andrade’s emotional rags-to-riches storyline on Instagram below.

Being the underdog is nothing new to Fabricio Andrade. The Brazilian standout feeds off of people’s doubts and negative comments by proving them wrong time and time again inside the ring.

As evidenced by his last world title war against MMA veteran John Lineker, Andrade works harder than most to achieve his dreams.

Sporting a perfect slate of six straight wins in ONE Championship, all via stoppages, Andrade is confident that his striking abilities will be too much for Jonathan Haggerty to handle.

Watch ONE Fight Night 16: Haggerty vs. Andrade, which emanates from the historic Lumpinee Boxing Stadium, live and for free in North American primetime on Friday, November 3.
