“That will be amazing” - Denice Zamboanga dreams of fighting in the United States for the first time

Newly crowned ONE interim women's atomweight MMA world champion 'The Menace' Denice Zamboanga of the Philippines is excited for a potential fight on United States soil, which is something she says she has yet to experience before.

The 28-year-old Quezon City resident was asked following her historic world title win last weekend if she wanted to be on one of the upcoming U.S. cards for ONE Championship this year, and she answered in the affirmative.

'The Menace' told the media:

"Of course, I'll be grateful to fight in the U.S. because I haven't been there. That will be amazing."

Zamboanga was last seen in a second-round technical knockout victory over no.4-ranked women's atomweight MMA contender Alyona Rassohyna at the recently concluded ONE Fight Night 27 last weekend.

ONE Fight Night 27: Tang vs. Abullaev on Prime Video was broadcast live from the historic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand, last Saturday, January 11. Fans in the United States and Canada can catch all the action via replay on-demand with an active Amazon Prime Video subscription.
