Bastos is already considered one of her generation's best submission grapplers, male or female, and she has the accolades to back such lofty standards.
The Brazilian superstar had a ridiculous 115-12 record and has nine world titles under the IBJJF, IBJJF No-Gi, and Who's Number One.
She made her ONE Championship debut earlier this year when she dominated Kanae Yamada for the unanimous decision win at the all-female ONE Fight Night 20 card in March.
Bastos now has a chance at a career-defining prize when she faces off against Kelly this Friday.
ONE Fight Night 24, just like all of ONE Championship's Amazon cards is available live and free to all Prime Video subscribers in the United States and Canada.
