As Stamp Fairtex’s popularity continues to expand across the globe, the former two-sport ONE world champion is beginning to expand her knowledge of the English language.

Speaking with the South China Morning Post, Stamp spoke about training and working with foreigners on a regular basis. In order to better communicate with those individuals, she has begun to learn English and utilizes the help of an English-speaking friend to help:

“I spent a lot of time with foreigners like there are a lot of foreigners in my camp, my coach is also a foreigner. Also going to America I got to speak a lot of English and also if there’s any mistake I have a friend to correct me so it’s been great.”

Stamp continued, saying:

"I’ve been practicing a lot because I’ve been interacting with a lot of foreigners so I would like to be able to communicate."

Those skills will most certainly come in handy when ONE Championship heads to the United States later this year for its first-ever stateside event.

Announced by the promotion before the end of 2022, ONE Fight Night 10 will head to the 1stBank Center in Colorado. The event will be headlined by a highly-anticipated trilogy bout between flyweight king Demetrious Johnson and former titleholder Adriano Moraes.

Stamp Fairtex enjoys the opportunity to teach the next generation of combat sports stars

When Stamp Fairtex is not smashing the competition inside the circle, the Thai warrior enjoys teaching her craft to a new crop of potential combat sports superstars. Though she admits that teaching did not come naturally, she has found her confidence and believes she can lend a helping hand to anyone interested in learning:

"I learned I can teach everyone. Before, I think I cannot teach, I'm just Stamp, I cannot teach everyone. Because I'm crazy and I [can't] make real friends. Yes. Because in Thailand is not real, just fake, fake friends."

Not only does Stamp help them, but she says that the individuals are also helping her, whether they realize it or not.

"I can learn from the questions from the audience about myself."

Stamp hopes to put her teaching and new English speaking skills to good use later this year when ONE Championship makes its long-awaited debut in North America. Whether or not she is booked for ONE Fight Night 10 remains to be seen, but if ONE plans to stack the deck for its debut in the mainland, Stamp Fairtex should be part of those plans.
