Freddie Haggerty reflected on his greatest achievements before signing with ONE Championship.

In January 2024, Freddie, the younger brother of ONE bantamweight kickboxing world champion Jonathan Haggerty, made his highly-anticipated ONE debut. Since then, the 20-year-old has solidified himself as an intriguing prospect by securing three consecutive wins, all knockouts.

During an interview with 'Goated Combat,' Haggerty was asked about his favorite accomplishments before signing with ONE. He had this to say:

"Before ONE, probably winning the WBC under-18 European championship. I won that a week before I turned 18. So, thankfully I just made it. Also, getting silver at the European Games. That was quite good. Broke my foot in the semi-finals and still fought in the finals the next day. But yeah, that was the greatest achievement."
