"They can't stop you!" - Fans get behind Danielle Kelly in first world title defense against BJJ superstar Mayssa Bastos

ONE atomweight submission grappling world champion Danielle Kelly will look to defend her crown against Brazilian BJJ superstar Mayssa Bastos in the co-headliner of ONE Fight Night 24 on Friday, August 2.

With the nine-time BJJ world champion set to be her biggest test yet under the ONE Championship banner, Kelly gave fans a glimpse of her intense training camp on Instagram.

Fans shared their support for Kelly's first world title defense in the comments section which can be read below:

"Love the "when I beat her". Let's gooooooo champ. You felt good this camp, ride that momentum 🧡🍊💪"

"Ayyy the smother!! Haha can't wait to watch you crush it. You've just been constantly climbing this camp and it's about to show ⚙️"

""I'm going to be the best in the world" MMHMM I KNOW THAT'S RIGHT 👏🏼"

"Gonna tell my kids this was Yuujirou Hanma"

"Champ for a reason"

The Silver Fox BJJ and Evolve MMA star is coming off a long-awaited revenge victory against Jessa Khan last September to claim the inaugural ONE atomweight submission grappling world championship.

Meanwhile, Bastos earned a unanimous decision win in her promotional debut this past March to set up her world title challenge against the American star at the iconic Lumpinee Stadium.

Danielle Kelly to focus on Mayssa Bastos' weakness

Danielle Kelly sees one vulnerability in Mayssa Bastos' game that she could take advantage of in defense of her throne inside the Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.

She recently told Jordan Teaches Jiujitsu:

"I have good top pressure, I have good wrestling, she has no wrestling, or more like I'm not really impressed with any of her wrestling. So I feel like I have that advantage going in."

ONE Fight Night 24 will air live and free to all Prime Video subscribers in the United States and Canada.
