Former two-sport world champion Stamp Fairtex sung Janet Todd’s praises in an exclusive interview with ONE Championship.

The Thai superstar is very much looking forward to Janet Todd’s imminent return to the circle after last seeing the American record a TKO victory against Anne Line Hogstad in April 2021.

Todd, who is currently the reigning atomweight kickboxing world champion is gunning for the Muay Thai interim belt against Spanish Muay Thai titleholder Lara Fernandez. The pair are set to co-headline ONE 159 on Friday, July 22.

In anticipation of a wild confrontation between the two world-class strikers, Stamp provided fans with more information about Todd’s evolution as a fighter.

Being a former rival against Todd on two separate occasions in Muay Thai and kickboxing, Stamp gave the perfect rundown of Todd’s striking prowess.

“The first time I fought with her, she still couldn’t read the game. Her style was obviously pressing forward, sharp and accurate. But in the second fight, I found that her game had much improved. She was [smart] and had a good fight intelligence. She always thinks before throwing every single shot."

Stamp added:

“Janet is also strong. She has built her muscles so well. She has brains and wit. She knows all the principles and what to do.”

Janet ‘JT’ Todd’s experience and athleticism are key factors in winning a second world title. Fans await in anticipation to watch the Californian native bring her skills into action against rising star Lara ‘Pizza Power’ Fernandez on July 22.
