Following her star-making world title win at ONE Fight Night 14, Stamp Fairtex plans on providing her family with a better life.
Stepping into the main event spotlight inside Singapore Indoor Stadium, Stamp scored the biggest win of her career, capturing the vacant ONE atomweight MMA world championship following a stunning third-round knockout of Ham Seo Hee. Former atomweight queen Angela Lee relinquished her world title in the same event, announcing her retirement.
With the victory, the Thai superstar made history by becoming the first fighter in ONE history to capture world titles in three different sports. Speaking with the South China Morning Post shortly after her epic victory, Stamp Fairtex spoke about her family and the desire to give them a better life courtesy of her newfound fame and fortune.
“Back when I was in the ring when I was with Mitch [Chilson], I said thank you to a lot of people, Stamp said. “And then I heard my mom yelling to me like, Ýou did it, You did it.’ I’m like, ‘Thank you, mom’ as a response. Overall, this improves my life and my whole family as well, for the better. In everything, financially and our lifestyle. I really appreciate my parents and I’ll make sure they have a better life.”
