Discussing some of the atomweight contenders in MMA, Stamp Fairtex spoke with Calf Kick Sports. Regarding the top-ranked Tiffany Teo, Stamp said:

Stamp also commented on South Korea's Ham Seo Hee, saying:

"She is a very good fighter, she's a challenging opponent. But as I have said, I feel like everyone is trying to talk to me and not in a good way. I don’t really care about it."
