Lito Adiwang believes Stamp Fairtex getting tested in multiple sports gives her an edge over Anissa Meksen
ONE Championship strawweight fighter ‘Thunder Kid’ Lito Adiwang gives Stamp Fairtex the edge in her upcoming contest.
At ONE Fight Night 6 on January 13, Stamp will take on elite striker Anissa Meksen in the promotion’s second-ever mixed-rules bout.
The Team Lakay fighter believes that Stamp has the advantage going into the fight due to her competing at a high level in multiple sports inside the circle.
Lito Adiwang told the The MMA Superfan:
“The difference here is, I’d give an edge to Stamp because she got tested in an MMA match, and Muay Thai match, and a kickboxing match. That’s her edge, how she can play the game."
Watch Adiwang's interview below:
Stamp once simultaneously held the ONE atomweight world titles in Muay Thai and kickboxing.
After her success in all-striking rulesets, she won the ONE Women’s Atomweight World Grand Prix to earn herself a world championship shot against Angela Lee. Though she came up short at ONE X, losing by submission in the second round, the experience will be invaluable in her next fight.
Meanwhile, Meksen holds over 100 wins in her illustrious career but has not competed in a professional MMA match. It will be interesting to see how ‘C18’ navigates through the MMA rounds against her Thai rival.
Stamp will get to showcase her MMA and Muay Thai skills against the French-Algerian fighter at ONE Fight Night 6 in Bangkok, Thailand.
