"I want to be the best version of myself" - Smilla Sundell dreams of three-sport supremacy like her teammate Stamp

Reigning and undisputed ONE women's strawweight Muay Thai world champion 'The Hurricane' Smilla Sundell of Sweden wants to follow in the footsteps of her senior and Fairtex Training Center teammate, atomweight MMA queen Stamp Fairtex.

Stamp is a three-sport world champion, winning belts across MMA, kickboxing, and Muay Thai. And Sundell wants to replicate that feat and even one-up her Thai contemporary.

She told ONE Championship in a recent interview:

"I think I just want to be the best version of myself and I want to have the kickboxing belt. I also want the MMA belt as well in the future."

Hold the Muay Thai, kickboxing...and MMA belts together? If anyone can do it, Sundell surely can.
