The 27-year-old appeared in her promotional debut against former atomweight MMA title challenger Mei Yamaguchi in March 2022. Yamaguchi survived several close submission attempts, leading to a draw.

Eight months later, Kelly made a statement by submitting combat sambo specialist Mariia Molchanova in two minutes and 15 seconds. She carried that momentum into her third ONE appearance, defeating former strawweight MMA title challenger Ayaka Miura by decision.
