Martyna Dominczak lays out career timeline and life goals: “I want to start a family”

Polish sensation Martyna Dominczak is looking ahead to her future.

The 23-year-old striker finds a way to balance her personal life and responsibilities as a professional athlete.

Those two worlds recently intertwined when she married her head coach and now husband, Maciej Dominczak.

Despite the monumental milestone, Dominczak insists her immediate goals remain the same. She still wants to make history for Poland by becoming the first fighter from her country to win a world title in ONE Championship.

In an exclusive interview with the promotion, Dominczak revealed her long-term plans when it comes to balancing her family and career.

"Actually, for many years I've known how I want my life to be. Right now, my career is in first place for me. I want to fight until maybe 30, 32, 33 — something like that, so almost 10 more years [of fighting]."

The Legion Glogow affiliate added:

“When I quit the sport and retire, then I want to start a family and give birth to my children and focus fully on the family. Right now it's time for my career because I'm young, because I'm at the top of my career, so I want to [maximize] it 100 percent."

At ONE Fight Night 38 this coming Friday, Dec. 5, Dominczak can make the next step to making her dreams come true.

She’ll face reigning women's atomweight kickboxing world champion Phetjeeja Lukjaoporongtom under Muay Thai rules in a possible world title eliminator.

Martyna Dominczak reflects on defeat to Ekaterina Vandaryeva

Martyna Dominczak has gone 3-1 in the world's largest martial arts organization, with her only blemish coming against Ekaterina Vandaryeva in 2024.

For the 23-year-old, losing to 'Barbie' was an eye-opener that made her a better fighter.

The Polish striker told ONE:

"I lost against Ekaterina [Vandaryeva]. It was in the strawweight division, so it was a bigger weight category. That's why we made the decision to go to atomweight. I feel better here, more strong. I'm a similar size to the girls in the atomweight division. So that fight, that loss, gave us a lot."
