ONE bantamweight MMA world champion ‘Wonder Boy’ Fabricio Andrade has sent a sharp warning toward his next challenger, No.4-ranked contender and Physical: Asia star ‘The Tormentor’ Enkh-Orgil Baatarkhuu.
The pair of bantamweight elites will meet in the main event of ONE Fight Night 38: Andrade vs. Baatarkhuu on Prime Video this weekend.
‘Wonder Boy’ warned Baatarkhuu that although he will be looking to end matters early, it will be tougher for his opponent the longer the fight goes on. He told Bangkok Post’s Nick Atkin:
“With this guy it's the same thing—I'm prepared to go all five rounds. I think every round that passes is going to be harder and harder for him. So I'm prepared to do the five rounds, but my style is always the same. I'm going to go there and try to finish the fight as soon as I can.”

Fabricio Andrade planning all-out attack for Enkh-Orgil Baatarkhuu
Fabricio ‘Wonder Boy’ Andrade is one of the most explosive strikers in ONE Championship. But he doesn’t achieve his highlight-reel knockouts just by attacking the head. He goes to the body too.
And he plans on doing just that against ‘The Tormentor’ Enkh-Orgil Baatarkhuu at ONE Fight Night 38: Andrade vs. Baatarkhuu on Prime Video this weekend.
He told South China Morning Post in an interview:
“I always hit your head, but I'm always thinking about your body because I know especially after you use a lot of strength, you know, you're going to be a little bit tired and if you get hits to the body, this is going to slowly be killing you, you know, and eventually you're going to get knocked out.”
