Fifth-ranked ONE atomweight MMA contender Jihin Radzuan believes Stamp Fairtex will make another statement by putting Denice Zamboanga to sleep at ONE 167.
In a Sportskeeda MMA exclusive, 'Shadow Cat' predicted a successful atomweight MMA world title defense for her Fairtex Training Center teammate on June 7 at Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand.
Since Stamp knows how Zamboanga operates, Radzuan claimed the judges won't be needed for this one.

"Based on Stamp's previous fights, she knocked people out with her striking. So I predict she's looking for [the] knockout. "
Stamp Fairtex, who holds the distinction as ONE's first three-sport world champion, is riding the momentum of a four-fight winning streak. Her last two victories came by way of sickening finishes, including a body-kick KO against Alyse Anderson and a title-clinching body punch against Ham Seo Hee.
The 26-year-old's remarkable striking has become deadlier now that she's been able to shore up her grappling arsenal.
Radzuan, who witnesses Stamp's brilliance on a daily basis, thinks Zamboanga will be in a world of hurt at ONE 167.

Stamp Fairtex not saying no to a rematch with Jihin Radzuan
Since battling friends is on Stamp Fairtex's agenda as of late, some fans can't help but wonder if she'll be open to running it back with Jihin Radzuan.
Before the pair became stablemates at Pattaya, Thailand, Radzuan and Stamp put on an epic three-round fight back in 2022. The Thai megastar defeated 'Shadow Cat' convincingly after three rounds.
Considering they fight in the same division, Stamp knows a do-over with her training partner is a possibility.
The atomweight MMA queen told Sportskeeda MMA:
"I'd accept it. Everyone wants to hold the belt, of course," Stamp said. "However, I'd like her to face all the other people in the ranking first, especially Ham [Seo Hee]."
