"I'm interested in all the rulesets" - Atomweight MMA queen Stamp Fairtex ready to re-establish Muay Thai and kickboxing dominance

2024 has been a very testing year for Stamp Fairtex but as she looks ahead to 2025, she has some targets in her sights.

The Thai superstar has always been incredibly ambitious, and that has helped her to achieve incredible things in ONE Championship. In 2023, she finally achieved her dream of becoming a three-sport world champion by winning the atomweight MMA title at ONE Fight Night 14.

When she first arrived in the promotion, Stamp quickly ascended to stardom by capturing both the kickboxing and Muay Thai titles in quick succession,

With her long-awaited return from injury drawing closer, the world champion recently spoke in an interview with ONE Championship about her goals.

Defending her crown is obviously the main focus right now but she doesn't want to solely focus on MMA in the near future.

The 27-year-old teased that stepping back into striking is something that she has been thinking about during her time away from the spotlight:

"I'm interested in all the rulesets right now. I feel very eager to be back in the ring and I am excited about the challenge of returning to the sports where I was once a champion."

Stamp Fairtex has unfinished business to attend to first

Before she can think about stepping back into kickboxing or Muay Thai to chase the world championships that once belonged to her, Stamp Fairtex has another priority.

The world champion was set to defend her title for the first time in the main event of ONE 167 where she would face Denice Zamboanga.

Following her injury, an interim title was created but an injury to her scheduled challenger pushed the fight back until ONE Fight Night 27 on Jan. 10, where Zamboanga will face off with Alyona Rassohyna.

When the three-sport queen is back and ready to go, there will be an interim champion waiting to welcome her back.
