India’s Ritu Phogat feels mental strength is as important as physical fitness in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). The Indian wrestler-turned-MMA fighter will return to the Circle at ONE 161: Petchmorakot vs. Tawanchai. She will take on home favorite and former ONE Women’s Strawweight World Title challenger Tiffany Teo in Singapore on September 29.

Hopefully I can beat her in her home.” “I intend to show a different side of me in this match. Applying the principle of fearless combat handed down to me by my father, I will relentlessly apply my techniques and not give my opponent a chance to attack.” ONE 161: Petchmorakot vs. Tawanchai features a stacked card of hard-hitting bouts showcasing MMA, Muay Thai, and kickboxing.
