WATCH: Bantamweight MMA king Fabricio Andrade looking sharp as ever ahead of potential return to action
Fabricio Andrade is looking as devastating as ever.
The reigning ONE bantamweight MMA world champion has been putting in the work in his home gym of Tiger Muay Thai in Phuket, Thailand, ahead of his potential return to action.
Andrade, who had one of the best starts of any fighter in ONE Championship, was working on his lethal kickboxing-style striking with Tiger Muay Thai's striking coach Phetsrinin Na Muang Trang.
Taking to Instagram, Fabricio Andrade wrote:

Andrade is a natural striker who started his professional career in Muay Thai and kickboxing.
After building an impressive 40-4 record under the two disciplines, Andrade switched over to mixed martial arts and became one of the world's best fighters.
'Wonder Boy', as he eventually came to be known, arrived at ONE Championship in July 2020 and became a bantamweight sensation.
After submitting Mark Abelardo in his promotional debut, Andrade blitzed through the ranks and established a perfect 6-0 (one no contest) MMA record that culminated in a knockout win over John Lineker for the vacant ONE bantamweight MMA throne.
Andrade, however, dropped his first match in ONE Championship when he suffered a knockout loss to ONE bantamweight Muay Thai world champion Jonathan Haggerty for the division's vacant kickboxing strap.
The Brazilian superstar has since taken the time off to recover from the multiple injuries he sustained in 2023.
Fabricio Andrade issues an open challenge to anyone who dares oppose his rule
Fabricio Andrade is already one of this generation's best fighters, and his fighting record can firmly attest to the 26-year-old superstar's fearsome reputation.
With a perfect MMA record in ONE Championship and five finishes to his name, Andrade is practically unbeatable in the sport.
He recently issued an open challenge to any contender brave enough to stand toe-to-toe with him inside the circle.
Andrade wrote on Instagram:
"Training is going well, I am ready to defend my title, let's go 🦾 #anyone #onechampionship."
