“Very shocking and very sad” - Stamp Fairtex on the sudden passing of 18-year-old Victoria Lee

Stamp Fairtex sent her condolences to the Lee family for the passing of their 18-year-old daughter and sister, Victoria Lee.

Victoria Lee had the whole world ahead of her. At 16 years-old, she turned heads when she defeated Thailand’s Sunisa Srisen by way of stoppage in her first professional outing.

She continued to impress fans with her maturity and all-encompassing skillset as she pulled off two more back-to-back finishes at the highest level.

After a year-long break from fighting to graduate from high school, Victoria had her next opponent lined up for her return. She was to fight this Friday, January 13, on the same billing as Stamp Fairtex, at ONE Fight Night 6.

Her sudden death on December 26, 2022, has left the entire ONE community in shock, including Stamp.

She told SCMP MMA:

“It was shocking news for me and it was sad because both of her siblings were paving the way for her and she was doing so great. It was very shocking and very sad. I am so sorry for the Lee family.”

The Thai superstar had a brief encounter with the Lee family last March, after she lost to Victoria’s sister, Angela Lee, for the atomweight championship belt. Backstage, she met Angela and her baby daughter, Ava Marie Pucci, to offer the mom-champ her congratulations.

Almost at a loss for words, Stamp looked at the camera and sent the following message to Angela and her family:

“Please be strong, this too shall pass this difficult time. Come back stronger.”

Stamp Fairtex believes Superbon has the home advantage ahead of epic title match

Stamp Fairtex believes Superbon has all the elements he needs to retain his kickboxing belt against Chingiz Allazov this Friday.

Regrettably, Stamp will no longer be taking part in the 8-fight spectacle since her opponent, Anissa Meksen, missed her weigh-ins this morning. However, she will be watching the explosive headliner on the sidelines, cheering for her fellow Thai countryman.

Speaking to ONE Championship, Stamp believes he’s got this fight in the bag, especially because he’s got the home advantage:

“I will definitely cheer for Superbon, because Superbon is really strong and smart. Plus, he will compete in Thailand, so he will be more eager and pumped up by all Thai fans shouting out in the stadium.”
