Jordan Estupinan hopes to get his ONE Championship tenure off to a dream start, and he vows to make the fight an absolute nightmare for the man standing across from him on fight night.
The Colombian fighter steps onto martial arts' biggest stage in a flyweight Muay Thai scrap against British sensation Freddie Haggerty at ONE 170 inside the sold-out Impact Arena on Jan. 24.
While he has a tough task ahead to dent Haggerty's impeccable run in the promotion, the striking wizard is happy to take on that responsibility to catapult his brand to stardom.

In an interview with ONE Championship, the 22-year-old took the opportunity to remind the younger Haggerty that he'll need to be at his best or risk coming up short.
Jordan Estupinan said:
"Make sure you train hard because this is my dream, and those that get in the way of my dreams will get steamrolled."
He will also be cornering his twin brother, Johan, who will be in action much higher on the card.
'Panda Kick' looks to stretch his unbeaten resume to 27-0 against high-flying teenage superstar Johan Ghazali and bag his fourth triumph in the promotion.
Jordan Estupinan's power could spell danger for Freddie Haggety
Freddie Haggerty may have looked like a force of nature, but Jordan Estupinan's knockout power could spoil his momentum.
The JCFernandez and Team CSK star is never one to back down from a fistfight and couple that with Haggerty's willingness to trade in the pocket only means that the young Colombian star will have plenty of chances to connect on the money.
Haggerty's chin has yet to be fully tested throughout his promotional tenure, and that can change if Estupinan lets his hands go with bad intentions in four-ounce gloves.
ONE 170, which emanates live from the Impact Arena in Bangkok, Thailand, will be available at watch.onefc.com.
