Double-world champion Jonathan Haggerty shocked the world when he knocked out unconscious ONE bantamweight MMA world champion Fabricio Andrade for the vacant ONE bantamweight kickboxing crown last year.

As always, Haggerty had some minds to change in the media regarding his high-level skillset and knockout capabilities. To this day, his doubters tend to forget that he's a different beast since moving up to the bantamweight level, and he's come to prove that repeatedly.

But Fabricio Andrade, the current ONE bantamweight MMA king, is also dangerous. And his ability to finish fights was all the rave.

In November 2023, Haggerty put a stop to Andrade's six-fight win streak in less than three rounds to become a rare double-world champion.

After watching 'The General' make quick work out of Andrade, the fans were both speechless and alarmed by Haggerty's power and shocked by the Brazilian's ability to survive for as long as he did.
