Former ONE welterweight MMA world champion Zebaztian Kadestam is much happier these days.
'The Bandit', after all, has found some inspiration and motivation in his personal life, which he believes made him into an even better fighter.
In an interview with ONE Championship, Kadestam talked about the satisfaction and contentment he feels thanks to his doting fiance:
“I’m just happy here. You know, I got my girl, I got my dogs, and yeah, happy. I feel that helps me a lot with going into the martial arts aspect as well. Yeah, she helps me stay grounded.”

Zebaztian Kadestam has always been an overzealous competitor, and his newfound inspiration should make him an even more dangerous foe for anyone.
The Swedish knockout machine will do what he does best this coming Friday in a three-round welterweight MMA showdown with Isi Fitikefu at ONE Fight Night 31: Kongthoranee vs. Nong-O II on Prime Video.
Kadestam, who has sights on reclaiming his lost throne, knows just how important this possible world title eliminator is in his bid to set a date with welterweight MMA world champion Christian Lee.
Feeling the unconditional love of his significant other will only fuel 'The Bandit' more in his explosive return at Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
