Although she has only played one match in the ONE Championship, Supergirl became the most anticipated new female Muay Thai star with her outstanding debut. On September 11, 2020, in "ONE: Everything Is Born II", the 16-year-old Supergirl punched the Argentine Muay Thai champion Lopez in just 60 seconds, rewriting her professional record to 38 wins, 5 losses and 1 loss. On January 14, "ONE: Strike Hard", 18-year-old Supergirl will stage the second round cage against Belarusian Muay Thai champion Ikatrina Vandayeva, known as the "most beautiful Muay Thai goddess".
Supergirl has no fear in the face of her predecessors who are 12 years older than herself. "Vandaeva's legs are fast and her physique looks stronger than mine, but age and strength are not the key to winning or losing, and I can use my skills to win the game!" Although I am younger than my opponents, my fists are not vegetarian! ”
Although she made her debut with a heavy KO, Supergirl's most threatening weapon was her unique knee punch. Unlike the trajectory of many Muay Thai boxers' knee collisions, Supergirl's knee strikes are raised and then pushed forward, and the straight line impact similar to a positive pedal is more penetrating. "I didn't play my full strength in my debut, I was too nervous, I didn't play as planned, it was all muscle memory making instinctive moves, everything happened too quickly and ended the game in one minute." Supergirl is looking forward to showing more technique in the match against Vandayeva.
Unlike the 18-year-old Girl, Vandayeva's motivation to fight comes from her family, and in addition to her status as a boxer, she is also the mother of a 4-year-old son. Vandayeva won the Belarusian Muay Thai Championship at the age of 17 and has since won the WMF World Championship, the IFMA World Championship and the WKN World Championship. "When I was around 20 years old, I wanted a child very much, it was a maternal instinct." Vandayeva married and had children and was away from the arena. But when her child was born, the passion for fighting in her heart was rekindled. She returned to the field and signed for the ONE Championship. "I want people to see that a girl can not only be smart and beautiful, she can also be very strong." We can be mothers, we can cook, we can give for our families, we are also educated and have our own hobbies, and none of this prevents us from fighting in the ring. ”
However, the competition in the cage was far more fierce than expected, and in the debut of "ONE Championship: Century" in October 2019, the "most beautiful Muay Thai goddess" was swept by Janet Toddgao, who was not yet the world champion of kickboxing. On April 29 last year, in "ONE: Earth-Shattering IV", Vandayeva lost to Todd's teammate Jackie Bentan in a divisive judgment. But the family and son supported Vandayeva in the fight. "My son is 4 years old, he is very independent and he supports me in his own way. I don't want to put my child in a professional ring, I don't want him to go through all the pain I've been through. But fighting has great value in shaping character and willpower, and is essential for a man. Vandaeva wants to be a role model for her son, and for this reason she is ready to go all out in the ring and win, and no one can underestimate her mother's determination.
One is a 172 cm tall Muay Thai girl, the other is the most beautiful Muay Thai goddess with a height of 170 cm, they all have their own passion and motivation to fight, who can become the final winner?
