Speaking to ONE Championship in a recent interview, Stamp talked about her progress in learning English.
The 26-year-old Fairtex Training Center product stated:
"In addition to studying, I have also improved my English skills by talking to foreigners at the gym. I talk to the coach all the time. Therefore, my speaking has begun to gradually improve."
Stamp added:
"I still have to rely on an interpreter to help me in on-stage interviews in ONE because this show is broadcast live all over the world. You should speak correctly and officially. I am not yet an expert at that level."
Stamp is without a doubt one of the biggest names in the world of fighting. In addition to being the ONE women's atomweight MMA world champion, Stamp was also the previous holder of the ONE atomweight Muay Thai and kickboxing belts.
