"The legend is back" - Fans can't contain their excitement watching Stamp Fairtex hit the pads following horrific knee injury

The return to action of reigning ONE women's atomweight MMA world champion Stamp Fairtex is inching closer as she now has the green light to have light training at the gym.

This is after her surgery and rehabilitation of the torn meniscus, which forced her to watch the action from the sidelines. ONE Championship recently published a video of Stamp's return to training with the following caption:

"The hustle continues 🔄 Do you think Stamp is ready to bring back the heat in 2025? @stamp_fairtex"

In the clip, the former ONE atomweight kickboxing and Muay Thai world champion can be seen hitting the pads with her patented combinations of punches and elbow strikes.

It was the first time in a long time that everyone saw Stamp inside the gym because, in the past few months, she has been posting photos and videos of her recovery.

This latest development was a welcoming sight for fans, especially from users @wasabibatman2021, @basedgoddie, @lalespetros, @airborneairassault, and @kavalynnn, who sent their excitement to see the Thai striking sensation back in training, as they commented:

"I cant contain my excitement for her comeback!!"

"QUEEN Stamp"

"The Legend is back 😍🔥❤️"

"Go get'em champ!"

"I will fly back just to see her"
