Stamp
Fairtex
picked up
One
Championship's atomweight mixed martial arts world championship
in the main event of
ONE on Prime Video 14.
The fight was preceded by an announcement from
Angela Lee
that she was retiring from mixed martial arts and relinquishing the
atomweight title. Fairtex had a stern test in
Seo Hee Ham,
who withstood many thudding kicks early on. However, Ham would
knock Fairtex down with a counter punch and make a statement in the
second frame. Fairtex would strike back in a major way in the third
frame as a right hand to the body would stun Ham, and
follow-up punches to the body and head led to the fight being
over. The fight was officially stopped at 1:04 of Round 3,
making Fairtex a three-sport world champion.
The second title fight of the night was for the strawweight muay
thai world championship as titleholder
Smilla
Sundell took on
Allycia
Hellen Rodrigues. The first round was close before Sundell
would badly rock Rodrigues with just seconds to go. "The Hurricane"
would live up to her nickname, coming forward and walking down
Rodrigues in the second frame. Sundell would continue wearing down
her opponent in the third, which culminated with
a series of knees and punches along the fence that saw the referee
wave the fight off. The official stoppage came at the 2:58
mark.
The inaugural ONE atomweight submission grappling world
championship was on the line between
Danielle
Kelly and
Jessa Khan.
The 10-minute match began with Khan jumping guard but getting
pressed against the cage and unable to do anything. After defending
several leglock attempts, Kelly would eventually get her back taken
by Khan. Kelly would eventually escape and then go for a kneebar
that was ruled a catch by the referee. After both were stood up and
separated, Kelly would get a takedown and stay in control for the
rest of the bout. Having come the closest to a submission, Kelly
was declared the winner via unanimous decision and declared the
first-ever champion in the division.
