“We can do it here now” - Denice Zamboanga was ready to fight Stamp Fairtex without leaving the ONE ring

Newly crowned ONE interim women's atomweight MMA world champion 'The Menace' Denice Zamboanga of the Philippines was only but a few minutes removed from her historic world title-winning TKO victory over Alyona Rassohyna before she came face to face with her next foe.

Zamboanga took care of business in dominant fashion against the Ukrainian star at ONE Fight Night 27 on prime Video last weekend in Bangkok. Almost instantly after the battle, the Filipina was already facing off with former training partner and reigning divisional queen Stamp Fairtex in the ring.

Zamboanga's victory meant that the stage had been set for a highly anticipated world title unification bout, which was expected to come before the end of the year. However, 'The Menace' said she was fresh enough to go right then and there.

She told Bangkok Post:

"Anywhere, we can do it here now."

When asked what other locations were possible, Zamboanga left it to the promotion. She said:

"I don’t know, it’s up to ONE Championship."

ONE Fight Night 27: Tang vs. Abdullaev 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 on Amazon Prime Video.
