Training camp is all about finding what works best for the fighter and just preparing for what might come their way during fight night and Denice Zamboanga is doing just that.

The ONE women's atomweight MMA star is set to battle with Noelle Grandjean in an atomweight MMA joust at ONE 167 on June 7 and 'The Menace' has a unique way of preparing for the big fight inside the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand.

Speaking with the South China Morning Post, Denice Zamboanga revealed how her fiance and fellow ONE Championship athlete Fritz Biagtan has played an important role in her camp:

"He's a flyweight, we train together and he's one of my main training partners. The goal is to knock him out; the weight is different so it's really hard, but that's my goal."

Despite being known by the fans for her wrestling pedigree, Zamboanga is never one to back down from trading blows with her opponents - something that was seen in her fights against the likes of Julie Mezabarba, Lin Heqin and Jihin Radzuan.

Denice Zamboanga points out Noelle Grandjean's best asset

The Filipina star knows full well that 'Lil Monkey' will bring the heat at ONE 167 and she recently pointed out what makes her a dangerous opponent.

Zamboanga said in the same interview:

"We sparred together. All the girls usually spar together. So every MMA training we spar together. When I sparred with her, her striking is really good. Her boxing is nice. But her judo, I like the way she uses her judo skills in our sparring."

ONE 167 will air live and for free to all Prime Video subscribers in the United States and Canada.
